Cattle Prod
-relocated from Spokane, Washington to Madison, Secretly Happy is their only release and was recorded at Smart Studios. Their lyrical content is just utterly hilarious on top of a unique sound. Some of the members went on to play in Headpump. While, Shella, moved to New York, where she worked with Autobody and Drumhead.

Members:
Brent: Mouth, Keys, Loose Change, Duck, Genuine Faux Guitar
Mark: Bass, Mouth, Microwave Omlettes
Shella: Skins, Mouth, Guitar, Hammer
Albert: Cowbell Hologram




















-Secretly Happy LP, Community 3, 1989. I like 'Tongues Are Pink' the best. It is a song ripping on racist skinheads. 'People Are Alright' sounds like it be better live.
