The Seven Ups

Blending influences from '70s underground funk with jazz, psych and fuzz rock, The Seven Ups are the original party band out of Melbourne’s northern suburbs. The 7-piece heavy groove combo will take you on an enigmatic journey into the darker fringes of instrumental music, drifting from funk to spiritual jazz and through to psychedelic fuzz rock. The Seven Ups are your soundtrack to the dancefloor at the end of the world.
