The Happy Brigade is a family and network of people built on the fundamental value that humans, and the whole planet, are inherently wired to radiate joy. Our family's focus is to keep that joy present and glowing. No, we don't expect you to be happy all the time, and we encourage individuals to feel and express all ranges of authentic emotions. As with many religions and philosophies, however, it is the bigger picture that tells the tale. At the heart of things, we just try to stay happy.
With roots that are based in the jam band scene we have converged to become a glowing and positive presence in the music scene, sustainability movement and beyond. Through auctions, fundraisers and our national network, our alliance allows us to face the obstacles affecting our well being. The Brigade is about accepting responsibility for the problems that affect us globally. From extending a smile in your daily routine to raising money for a charity, we can be a positive force.
Our community shares a love for music, dancing and a zest for fun. Music sparked the fire of the Brigade before the Happy Brigade was actually conceived! Brigaders continue to stoke the scene, both the musicians and fans, to help keep the music community positive and energetic.
The Brigade Mission:
As Individuals
