Although a group; each of the four members are individual acts as well. Upper Left consists of four members; Mackrayz, One Dot, Pnw Nils and Denzel 2AM. Each member brings something unique to the table on each song that they collaborate on. All four members knew met in high school in the Pacific Northwest (Washington State)  through sports and various activities but it wasn't till after they graduated that they would realize their talents and formed the music group.
Coming from an area where most of the world only recognizes the Rock and Alternative scene; Upper Left brings a different texture to the music scene. Always evolving and creating a unfamiliar sound that the Seattle area or world hasn't heard yet

Blood, sweat, and pixels wrapped in guitar strings.
