Introducing Happiness is a 1994 album by Rheostatics.

The album includes "Claire", the band's only Top 40 hit. That song is also featured on the Whale Music soundtrack album.

Introducing Happiness was the band's second and final album for Sire Records. Sire found the band's quirky indie rock too quirky and too indie to market effectively despite having a Top 40 hit, and dropped the band from the label.

It was also Dave Clark's last album with the band. Following this album, he left to concentrate on The Dinner Is Ruined, and was replaced for the next several years by Don Kerr.
