With influences like Pink Floyd and the Pixies, New York City’s the Upwelling have been gathering notice. While unsigned, the band was designated as the 1st unsigned act and 1st EP on Virgin-Megastore’s Virgin Recommends series, Spin.com Underground Band-of-the-Year, and named Karma Productions’ band to tour Ireland. Without agency, the band was invited to tour the U.K. with the All-American Rejects and then invited to tour the U.S. as the sole support on Third Eye Blind’s 10-year anniversary tour.
