“I was born to help you with your groceries” begins the tale of the life’s journey of a plastic bag, from shopping bag, to trash can liner, to being stuck on a seabird… and, the dismaying saga continues, because, truly, the plastic bag will never die, and will remain here far far too long. The Couldn’t Be Happiers may not have intended this to be a protest song, but it very well could be. The music is rootsy rock, with a touch of darkness and glorious vocals.

‘When I Die‘ is equally not as downbeat as the name might hint at. It’s a quiet wish that the karmic scales should be more than balanced “when I die and the universe takes stock / I hope I let more folks change lanes than I cut off / When I die if you do the math / I hope I stood for what was right more than I stood back.”

The optimism that community, tradition, and love are equipped to handle the terrifying prospects of climate change, authoritarianism, and other perils of modernity, plus the stunningly assertive lead vocals and harmonies, provide all the gravity needed to keep these diverse sounds in symphonic orbit. The duo sees Couple(t)s as a labor of love, where their individual strengths alone might not have been sufficient to achieve the desired results. Much like the poetic couplet itself, Couldn’t Be Happiers came together to achieve the same goal: a perfectly balanced album.
