    Artist description
    Upstur is a recording project for me and my many home recorded songs. They are all completely different. I write songs with a little bit of a twang, opting for an occasional fuzzy mess, but for the most part, my songs are simplesongs that emphasize the more obscure elementsof music. When writing, I either strategize for hours, or just let it flow. It is musical schizophrenia. I try not to be too pretentious or self indulgent though, which, as you can imagine, is hard when you are asolo project. I basically sit on my drum thrownand mix myself playing those, then guitar, thenbass, or whatever. I am not really extremely accomplished in any of them, but it is fun so...It works.
    Music Style
    Indie Rock
    Musical Influences
    Dinosaur Jr., Elvis Costello, Tom Waits, Guided by Voices, The Beatles (duh), Mike Watt, etc.
    Artist History
    Upstur started out as a solo project. I recorded songs at home and gave copies to friends and such to just let them hear what I was doing. I started recording a couple of songs a week, and writting mostly every day. I just signed a record deal with GIANT RECORDS and I'll be recording a 4 song to use in promoting my band. We will be shopping labels soon. I am also talking to Aural Overload about a deal. anyway, I feel like a politician. I'm gonna go be quiet.
