UP SOUTH

The phrase "overnight success" means nothing to the Minnesota-based country band UP SOUTH. Collectively, the band's members have nearly a century of experience honing their craft. From smoke-filled saloons to festival stages, UP SOUTH prides itself on playing like their lives depend on it and in a way, they do. As lead singer Mike Villalva recalls, "I remember being about 9 or 10 years old and seeing "Jailhouse Rock" on TV. I asked my parents who that was and they told me it was Elvis Presley. That was the day my life's purpose was set in stone."... Home page of Up South, a country group from Carver County, Minnesota. Official website of Up South
