about

Hands Up, is a high speed and relentless ska journey with a stunning performance from vocalist Robbie, punctuated by the virtuosity of a rhythm section that is seemingly glued together and the infusion of styles from heavy rock to hip-hop and dub. As if that’s not enough, there’s a 6 piece horn section blowing the back door down too.

The proceeds (streaming and download revenue) from Hands Up are to be donated to Tonic Music for Mental Health, whose mission to raise mental health awareness, challenge stigma and promote mental wellbeing through music and the arts is very close to our hearts.
