HAPPY TO BE HERE.

Some people call it work. Others can't believe they get to do it.

Inspired by Chris Furness, drummer for an internationally touring tribute band, Happy To Be Here is a celebration of doing what you love and appreciating every opportunity along the way.

For Chris, travelling the world, stepping onto stages and playing music is something worth being grateful for. That attitude inspired a design that reminds us to enjoy the journey, wherever music takes us.

MADE TO PERFORM. NOT JUST TO POSE.

Part of the Above Average Session Performance range, this sleeveless tee combines performance-focused comfort with understated streetwear styling.

Made from substantial 240gsm cotton Ice Fabric with a cool-touch feel, it's designed to keep you comfortable through rehearsals, performances and everything in between.

A signature Above Average DRMMR Ascent print sits centre chest, while oversized Happy To Be Here brush-script artwork makes a statement across the back.

Because not every gig will be perfect. Not every performance will go to plan.

But you're doing something you love.

And that's something worth celebrating.

ABOVE AVERAGE. MADE FOR MUSIC.

The Brand

Not Perfect. Above Average.

Started by a musician who picked his instrument back up after years away, and got tired of gear that looked the part but didn't hold up in the room. Every piece is designed with rehearsal, stage, and everyday life in mind — not just the photo. No hype drops, no chasing trends. Just clothing built the way we'd want to wear it ourselves, tested by people who actually live in it.
