The Kills Announce EP, Share Cover of “Happier Than Ever”


The Kills have revealed a new EP set to arrive this Friday, September 20th. Happier Girl Sessions will feature non-electric versions of four songs from their 2023 album, God Games, in addition to a cover of Billie Eilish’s “Happier Than Ever.” As a preview, the duo of Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince have dropped their take on the Eilish hit today; stream it below.

Recorded in London, Happier Girl Sessions will be available both in digital format and as a 7-inch vinyl.

“It’s all Sirius XM’s fault,” Mosshart revealed in a statement. “We were asked to do an acoustic session with them last year and they’d asked for a cover as part of the session. I’d always really dug ‘Happier Than Ever’ and found myself singing it around the house all the time. It seemed like a good choice, since I loved it and loved singing it.”

The Kills recently announced a string of headlining shows to make up for their gigs opening for Queens of the Stone Age, which were canceled due to frontman Josh Homme’s health issues. They’ll play concerts in Jackson, MS; New Orleans, LA; and Florence, AL; as well as appear at the Mempo Music Festival in Memphis and Festival Hipnosis in Mexico in the coming weeks.
