This week’s Indie Spotlight features Australian web comedy series Happy & Clean, brought to you by Con the barber, from Enmore Sydney.

When I decided to launch a regular Indie Spotlight post here at Writing in Shadows, I thought it would be easy. Find an independent movie, book, music or web project, post it and let the word get out. What I hadn’t considered was how many high quality and valuable independent projects there would be to choose from.

I selected Happy & Clean this morning based on the video. If you can make me laugh in such a short time period, there’s got to be something in the idea. The synopsis for Happy & Clean caught my eye and from there it was an easy decision to make today.

Marty Murphy, failed Australian comedian says it best;

Live from New York, and his Indiegogo campaign page, Marty gives us an insight into the adventure to be had in New York City in 2013.
