Happyland | Zach Knox and Brayden Dickerson
Episode description
In the pantheon of rock operas, “Tommy,” “The Wall” and “Jesus Christ Superstar” come first to mind on the list of classic titles. Could we someday add to that list “Happyland?” Host Matt Peiken talks with Zach Knox and Brayden Dickerson, the Asheville creators of “Happyland,” an ensemble-cast musical premiering this month at the Magnetic Theatre. We talk with about the theatrical nature of their band, Smooth Goose, the creative evolution of the “Happyland” music and how this project is influencing their band’s direction.
