Back in the Triangle after a sold-out show last fall, we’re stoked to HAPPY LANDING with their energetic, punk-inflected folk. Athens’ The Ocho is along for the ride with a lil indie folk. We’re in for a good time. HAPPY LANDING is an American band formed in Oxford, Mississippi in 2020 by Matthew Hendley (lead vocals, guitar), Keegan Christensen (vocals, keys), Jacob Christensen (drums,vocals), Andrew Gardner (fiddle, vocals), and Wilson Moyer (bass/guitar, vocals). The group pioneers a new wave of folk music, captivating audiences internationally with their energetic live shows and fresh sound, blended from the roots of southern rock, punk and folk. After debut festival appearances at Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, and Summerfest, the band’s sophomore album, Big Sun, comes in 2026 paired with a major headline tour of the US & Canada. The Ocho is a 5-piece indie rock band hailing from Athens, GA. Fueled by an eclectic array of musical influences, their distinctive sound pulls listeners through diverse moods, styles, and reflections.Their debut EP, Spring Without a Lover (June 2023), followed by their subsequent projects, including EPs Float Across (April 2024), and Sweet Sincerity (May 2025) marked their arrival on the indie scene and earned them a loyal following within the downtown Athens’ historic music community and beyond. With exceptional instrumentation, unique vocals, and warm yet discerning lyrics, The Ocho quickly became a local favorite.
