Before THE UP BEAT premiered in Utah County, it received two great reviews:
"The Up Beat" is a fond valentine to the vanished, or at least critically endangered, sonic habitat across Utah where ska, the fusion of Caribbean sound with American jazz and R&B that originated in Eisenhower-era Jamaica, formerly flourished. The locals interviewed for the film suggest that, taking into account differences in market size, ska had a more vibrant, diverse presence in Utah than anywhere else in America."Go here (http://www.heraldextra.com/content/view/278416/147/) to read the entire review by Cody Clark of the Daily Herald."The film really finds its voice when the focus turns to Utah's own ska scene, when bands like Swim Herschel Swim, Stretch Armstrong and My Man Friday played to overflow crowds, and national acts—including a pre-breakout No Doubt and legends like the Skatalites—made sure to stop in Utah County. Local musicians and radio personalities provide their reminiscences about acts from Logan to St. George, supported by archival concert footage."Go here (http://www.slweekly.com/index.cfm?do=article.details&id=0563FB5C-14D1-13A2-9F74DF546A3D862D) to read the entire review by Scott Renshaw of the Salt Lake City Weekly.
