Paula Cole wrote "Happy Home" on her own, words and music, for Harbinger, her 1994 debut album. Kevin Killen produced, engineered and mixed it, and the players around her are a sharp crew: Cole on keyboards as well as vocals, Kevin Barry on acoustic guitar, Gerry Leonard on electric guitar and EBow, Paul Bushnell on bass, Jay Bellerose on drums and percussion, and Mark Hutchins on hi-hat.
The record around it had rotten luck. It came out on Imago, which folded only months later, so Harbinger got next to no promotion. Warner Bros. absorbed the label, picked up Cole's contract in 1995 and put the album back out.
