So Happy Together is the first full-length album by Memphis indie rock band The Grifters. The album was noisier and lo-fi by even Grifters standards, much of it comprised of home recordings on 4-track. It was released on the now defunct Chicago, Illinois label, Sonic Noise. It featured the re-recording "The Want", which debuted as a A Band Called Bud song. Originally released on vinyl as a six song mini-album, it was extended to a full twelve track album, though the album only features ten song titles. The back of the CD tray lists the original tracks apart from the bonus tracks and some of the lyrics to "Wreck" are featured in an image by Greg Harwell.
