Remember when music was political? Music here was intended to express an injustice and to publicly make a stand.
Considering the revolutionary news coming out of the beautiful North African areas, it is almost a MUST to include the Egyptian struggle in any media today.
We will have a live phone call with one of the protesters (happens to be my cousin) out in Tahrir Square that will tell us how things are and The Upbeats have kindly accepted to share their opinions on the current issues and on the discussion of political music.
Now on a European tour, The Upbeats are usually based in New Zealand where they seem to have spend alt of time in perfecting a signature sound.
