In 2004 and 2005, Lisik and his band toured behind "Baggage." In 2005, Lisik had a cameo role in the film Circle Track Summer from Fools Gold Entertainment and began work on the follow-up to Baggage. The new album, Happiness Is Boring, was released in July 2006. The Cleveland Scene said of "Happiness" "Brian Lisik taps the same ragged roots-rock vein as the Replacements and Old '97s, cooking Stones-style country-blues and jingle-jangle twang into a variety of enticing recipes."
