Music To Freak To Series – Artist Feature – The Titan Ups

The Titan Ups play traditional Rocksteady and early Reggae with an accent on authenticity. Whether it’s a classic track from Toots and the Maytals, to more obscure classics to soon-to-be-classic original tunes, the Titans “Bring It” and keep the dance floor packed from start to finish!
The group is led by Bob Reed, ex frontman of 90s S.F. Noisepop favorites Overwhelming Colorfast and lead guitarist for indie rock darlings, Oranger. Drummer Dave Leonard has handled drumming duties for the likes of The Sermon, Pat Johnson and Penelope Houston. The Group is rounded out by Mike Davenport and Igor Belogolovsky on guitars (Coup De Ska), Jen Hale on Keyboards (Killer’s Kiss) and Carroll Ashby on trombone.

The group calls San Francisco’s Mission District home and have quickly distinguished themselves as San Francisco’s Premier Rocksteady band!

Music To Freak To is a monthly Saturday Night concert at Amnesia, featuring the best in the Bay Area’s soul, funk, blues, roots, folk, rock and more!  To support Con Brio’s release of their debut album “From The Hip”, the band played a veritable headlining tour of San Francisco in 2010, with spots at Bottom of the Hill, Cafe Du Nord, Red Devil Lounge, Boom Boom Room, Elbo Room, Amnesia and many more. For 2011, they plan to settle into a 4-month long residency at the hippest spot in the Mission, and have teamed with the Songbird Festival to put together a series of concerts to showcase the best emerging artists in the Bay Area and beyond.  With a rotating cast of local musicians sitting in on Con Brio’s sets, and talented and diverse opening and closing acts each night, you will never know exactly what to expect at this party.
