Happy Drivers

Originally a straight rockabilly band, the Happy Drivers' sound changed when Didier (from the Wampas, Los Carayos) joined the band and they signed to the alternative punk label Boucherie Productions. Two albums followed with powerful guitars, crazy thumping double bass and punkabilly drumming. War (1990) & Toowoomba (1991) are two insanely catchy albums, great singalongs, melodic songs with hints of metal (think Cramps meet Motörhead meet Stiff Little Fingers). The band did another album of this kind in 1993 but they kind of lost the magic recipe by then. Those two albums remain with (icing on the cake!) great cover versions of Madonna's La Isla Bonita & Bob Marley's I Shot the Sheriff. If you're into melodic yet powerful hard rocking psychobilly, this band's for you!
