Happy As Can Be

Happy As Can Be

In Happy As Can Be, 11 Acorn Lane further develop their musical philosophy of combining the neo with the retro, while continuing their trademark upbeat and uplifting sound (Comin' Home Baby, Yes, My Superstar). With a loving smile, tribute is made to one of their major influences, Henry Mancini (Two Little Dreamers, Grandmother's Little Secret, Spend My Time With You). At the end of a happy journey, the album finishes with a return to the Eastern European brothel creeping sound (The Return Of The Devious Thought). This record continues to showcase 11 Acorn Lane's uncanny ability to maintain the balance between accomplished craftsmanship and tongue-in-cheek quirkiness (Happy As Can Be, The Party, Too Hot).
