Basement Up

The group released their first official album “Feel Good Music” regionally, in September, 2006. This album was a formal introduction to the Basement Up's brand name, filled with a variety of topics from “world issues” to “a night out at the club.” With this album, the group was able to establish an awareness of hip-hop on the Frankfort music scene, which had been exposed to very little of the musical genre performed on a local level in years prior. This led to the group getting numerous show opportunities not only locally, but regionally in Kentucky cities such as Louisville, Lexington, and Bowling Green. In addition, their music has also allowed them to perform in out of state locations such as Indiana and West Virginia and Nashville, TN. A new venture for the Basement arose, when the group recorded a track used for a television commercial ran locally, for the Frankfort based car accessories store Ky. Pro-Tints. Following off that, they’ve since recorded music used in locally aired commercials for the rebroadcasting of local high school football and basketball games on Frankfort’s Cable 10 television station. Nationally, their music was also featured on Fox Sports Radio personality, J.T. the Brick’s weeknight show, as part of his “Myspace Monday” music segment.

The future of the Basement Up is one of hopeful promise, in which the group will continue their current trek of recording, performing, and self-promotion in order to spread their sound to a larger audience. Currently, the group is fresh off their newest release titled "No Fillers", which dropped 09/09/2011. Upcoming projects include Allen Poe's (1/3 of the Basement Up) "Good Foundation", and an EP yet to be named, expected to be out early in the summer of 2012.
