Umphrey’s McGee continues the celebration of their 20th anniversary with the release of a new music video for “Upward,”
the first from their surprise companion album it’s you. Shot over Memorial Day weekend at Summer Camp Music Festival in Chillicothe, IL, the video showcases the band’s appreciation for their fans with aerial shots of high-spirited festival goers combined with illuminating stage lights and scenic backdrops. Uplifting, inspirational, and anthemic, this fan favorite features their contagious stage presence, smooth vocals, magnetic guitar solos, and stirring drum mastery. PRESS HERE to watch and check out the first look from Live For Live Music.
“Upward” is from it’s you, the band’s surprise 10-track companion album to it’s not us, which explores the band’s virtuosity and encyclopedic knowledge of diverse styles. By connecting the energy of this new album, with the spirit at Summer Camp Music Festival, the band executes an electrifying video, leaving audiences encapsulated by a range that is rarely found in a single band.
Just five months ago, Umphrey’s McGee released it’s not us to critical acclaim – an amalgam of big, heavy rock elements and guitar wizardry, to softer moments, jazzy flourishes, propulsive percussion, and jams. PRESS HERE to check out “Looks” and PRESS HERE to check out “Half Delayed.”
