We're willing to bet we're a rarity on this site: not submitting music, but sketch comedy. But hey, it's all audio, right?
Many sketches we do are based on people we've met, personal experiences we've had, or just out of goofy inspiration.
So hopefully you can use a break from some music and stop by for a laugh. If you don't laugh at least once while here, we'll refund the money you paid to listen.

Why this name?
It's a variation on a name from High School. A shop teacher (a very heavy man) had made faux business cards and left a stack of them on his desk. I came across them; they stated his company would be called "Fatties Inc." After getting the idea to incorporate, Fatties Inc., LLC looked really dumb. After considering a few names, Happy Fatties was decided on.
Do you play live?
Don't perform live, but would if someone were willing to turn our sketches into stage plays.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Anyone that says the internet doesn't change the music industry for the better just isn't paying attention. The stronghold of the major labels is loosened, and if they were smart, they'd embrace the internet as a marketing tool instead of looking at it like a vampire would garlic.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Well duh. I'd take their money, bi*** about their meddling, leave and then be free to do my own "thang" because I'll be more well-known and have more money to do it than I do now.
Your influences?
