Happy Soul
With influences as diverse and weird as Frank Zappa, Jake Thackray, Mahalia Jackson, Scott Walker, Nilsson and The Beach Boys, The Happy Soul are a hard band to pigeonhole. Part power-pop, part gospel, part Spector, they have been busy working on their new album, Big Wow, and will release it this Summer.
Listen to their first album here https://thehappysoul.bandcamp.com/releases
Karl Largen
Whether it’s surreal nonsense of polemical rant, Karl crafts ‘pun and punchline’ to deliver ‘clever yet accessible ‘ stories ,poems and musings. Karl is proud to be back at Shangri La and promises to entertain you- if not royally then at least find common ground- and stare blankly into space, laugh at stags and poke fun at swans.
