    Artist description
    Formed in New York City in February 1998, The Up On In consists of drummer Zach Barocas, electric and upright bassist Charlie Bennett, and electric guitarist Ryan Grayson. The Up On In is an instrumental group, though decidedly not improvisational in its approach. Their concept is that melodic and/or rhythmic complexity is best suited to short, composed arrangements. The tunes are rarely over three minutes long, but attempt to cover a great deal of musical territory nonetheless.An article and three prepositions.Three talented musicians.One unique band.Rock, jazz, intellect, instrumentals

    Artist History
    Formed in New York City in February 1998, The Up On In consists of drummer Zach Barocas, electric and upright bassist Charlie Bennett, and electric guitarist Ryan Grayson. The Up On In is an instrumental group, though decidedly not improvisational in its approach. Their concept is that melodic and/or rhythmic complexity is best suited to short, composed arrangements. The tunes are rarely over three minutes long, but attempt to cover a great deal of musical territory nonetheless.Of course, curiosity runs high- after all, drummer Zach Barocas was one-quarter of DC post-hardcore favorites Jawbox. Revered as a drummer, Barocas now melds his love for jazz with his punk rock background in The Up On In. Tortoise fans, listen up. You like Five Style, Heroic Doses, Don Caballero, and Euphone? Thought so.
