SUMMARY:Upstate
DESCRIPTION:It takes good soil\\, and good seasons\\, to bear good fruit\
 \, and Upstate has had its plenty. The band sprung up in New York’s leg
 endary Hudson Valley\\, set in the middle of a thick American musical her
 itage. To their inland West was the Ashokan reservoir folk tradition\\, a
 nd across the river to the East the legacy of Pete Seeger and the Clearwa
 ter. Just north of them was Woodstock and Big Pink\\, and all the treasur
 ed inheritance of Bob Dylan and the Band. Just south was Tony Falco’s f
 amed venue the Falcon\\, a refuge and respite for some of the most venera
 ble jazz legends like Sonny Rollins or Joe Lovano. From the first\\, Upst
 ate drew liberally from everything each corner had to offer.\\n \\nAfter 
 15 years\\, three records\\, nearly a dozen former members\\, and one nam
 e change\\, Upstate could almost seem unrecognizable were it not for the 
 constancy of their songs. Original members Melanie Glenn\\, Harry D’Ago
 stino\\, and Mary Webster have been writing and playing music together th
 roughout all the upheavals in the band and their lives. It’s their shar
 ed dedication to writing songs of lasting value that has persisted across
  all the changes to their sound. When Dylan Mckinstry finally joined the 
 band in the years of the COVID pandemic\\, his enthusiasm for that commit
 ment made it the band’s lasting cornerstone.\\n \\nOn their upcoming Ab
 alone\\, Upstate draws on the best of what has marked the band in all its
  many eras. They showcase a broad range of sounds and styles from across 
 America’s musical landmarks\\, from the Hudson Valley to Laurel Canyon 
 and back again (with a few detours to Muscle Shoals). They revive their n
 oted three-part harmonies\\, this time with McKinstry adding a male voice
  to the mix. And most importantly\\, they bring an even more seasoned ded
 ication to writing and performing songs of lasting value.\\nhttps://www.g
