About
Beat Happening was an American indie pop band formed in Olympia, Washington in 1982. Calvin Johnson, Heather Lewis, and Bret Lunsford were the band's continual members. Beat Happening were early leaders in the American indie pop and slacker rock movements as well as pioneers of twee pop, noted for their playful disregard for the technical aspects of musicianship that contributed to lo-fi music, and songwriting with carefree and coy themes.

Beat Happening est un groupe de rock indépendant américain, originaire d'Olympia, dans l'État de Washington. Leur style musical saturé et minimaliste, des techniques d'enregistrement primitives, un mépris revendiqué pour toute forme de virtuosité, et de façon générale leur posture anti-commerciale en font l'un des groupes pionniers du mouvement lo-fi et exercèrent une importante influence sur le développement du rock indépendant américain des années 1980.
