"Let's Make an Album!" is a new immersive performance series by Philadelphia Pop-Punk outfit “Happier Than Ever”, attempting to break down the wall between artist and audience. Join the punk trio as they lead an evening of songwriting essentials, guiding the audience through the process of crafting a song from initial idea to the first draft. Featuring vocalist and guitarist Jaden Alvaro Gines, bassist Charlotte Horansky, and drummer Connor Gotham, the band will guide the audience through traditional songwriting structure, lyrical storytelling, and investigate the choices that are made behind each step of the songwriting process. Through audience suggestions and collaboration, the band will create a full length song from start to finish LIVE on stage each night, with the audience credited as songwriters! By the end of the performance series, the hope is to create a small album’s worth of music to be released following the completion of performances, with the audience members being given writing credits. The goal is to erase the line between the artist and the musician, and begin the audience’s participation in the work from the very beginning. Part performance, part workshop, part improv show- get your notebooks and pencils ready, because it’s time to make an album!
