Awfully Apeelin' is The Happy Fits' debut EP, recorded and mixed by Matt Maroulakos at The Den Recording Studios in Paterson, NJ in August 2016. The EP was self-produced by guitarist Ross Monteith and cellist Calvin Langman, with Luke Davis on drums. By replacing the traditional electric bass with an acoustic cello, The Fits create a new sound, mixing the folk sounds of The Lumineers with the rocking guitar riffs of The Killers. A week after its release, their single "While You Fade Away" rocketed to #5 of Spotify's Top 50 Viral USA Chart and #17 on Spotify's Top 50 Viral Global Chart.
