Although unsigned, the Hit-ups have got an enormous fan base. Originally from Bristol (guitarist Charlie has ventured into adulthood and currently studies physics at Southampton Uni), they are the kings of partying. They are known for their energetic performaces, especially from frontman Josh. I saw them play recently at the Harbour festival this summer. They have a really youthful vibe, and we hope to echo this in our music video. Their demographic seem to fall into the group of young adults. Judging from their facebook group:

I like the fact that the band appeal to people of all ages that love music. They're really special because they don't fit into one genre of music, as the south-west's reputable 'Venue Magazine' has pointed out - they're really eclectic and their music is a fusion of various genres such as funk, indie, hip-hop, ska and reggae.
THE HIT-UPS!
All three of us are so excited to say that we are collaborating with such a breath of fresh air. I do think that all thing happens for a reason, maybe the rejection from the manager of UK hip-hop's 'Plan B' was destiny?!
