Happy Birthday is a dizzying rush of nine songs, the album grew out of Wolfhard's personal challenge to pen 50 songs by the end of 2022. He admits, InchI ended up writing a lot of terrible stuff, but a few of those songs I was really proud of went to the Aubreys. I started realizing a general theme in a lot of the other songs involving my identity, anxieties, nostalgia, childhood and loneliness. All of that was a part of a bigger puzzle. I knew I wanted to make a record, but I didn't know which songs.Inch - For Wolfhard, who will be touring Happy Birthday this year, the album is another accomplished step forward in his evolution as a musician, songwriter and citizen of planet Earth. InchIf I were to walk away and listen to it in 10 years, I think it would feel like the beginning of a specific style and voice,Inch he says. InchIt can be interesting being a younger person in any kind of industry, because even though I've been acting for a long time, I'm still only 22, and things start to take shape at different times in your life. I hope that when I look back on this record, I'll be proud of the melodies and the songwriting. I want to be accepting of myself at that time. It was okay that I felt like that and made a record about it and then moved on to new experiences.Inch

David Fyodorovich Oistrakh was a renowned Soviet classical violinist. Oistrakh collaborated with major orchestras and musicians from many parts of the world, including the Soviet Union, Europe, and the United States, and was the dedicatee of numerous violin works, including both of Dmitri Shostakovich's violin concerti, and the violin concerto by Aram Khachaturian. He is considered one of the preeminent violinists of the 20th century. David Oistrakh is known to have played at least seven Stradivarius violins owned by the Soviet Union. He initially selected the 1702 Conte di Fontana Stradivarius, which he played for 10 years before exchanging it for the 1705 Marsick Stradivarius in June 1966, which he played until his death.
