This Way Up will make you dance. They bring rhythms and melodies from all over the world, and combine them into a unique, spirited mix. Reggae, Calypso, Folk, Blues, Rock, Country- these are just some of the ingredients.

Songwriter, guitarist and lead vocalist Nigel Webb has crafted hundreds of songs.
The lyrics run the gamut from personal relationships, to political protest, to celebrations of nature, to tales of the Renaissance and more.

Coastal mainstay Bobby ‘Flamingo’ Gates propels the group on drums. La Honda’s first-call bassist Kevin Kelsey provides the low end foundation. Tony Pratt plays twisting, evocative lead and slide guitar. Neil Panton rounds out the group, weaving complex tapestries of sound on keyboards.

The whole of the group exceeds the sum of its parts, as they voyage musically together, with almost telepathic interplay.  So whether you want to dance, or just relax and listen, This Way Up is worth checking out.
