"Happy Harmonies" was a gospel country music group in western Sydney, Australia during the 1950' and 1960's. It recorded a half hour radio show for western Sydney radio station 2KA which at the time was an A.M. Station; primarily servicing the Blue Mountains area to the west of the Sydney Basin. It ran from 1962 to 1975. It is not known whether the name of the band came from the radio show, or vica versa.

The music was country music based, including bluegrass with harmonies being a feature.

The personnel in the band changed regularly depending on who available for concerts, or who was available for the radio recording sessions. However, Eric Hall was the band leader and driving member of the group.
