The Upwelling is a band with roots in the New York, Washington, D.C., and Boston areas that currently resides in Queens. The band originally consisted of brother Ari and Josh Ingber on guitar and drums respectively with Scott Morley on keyboards. Their self-recorded, self-titled EP achieved the rare feat of finding distribution without being released by a label, partly due to it's "Recommended" status by the Virgin Megastore -- the first time the retail chain awarded such an honor to an unsigned band or an EP.[1] They were also able to advance to the final rounds of Spin Magazine’s Band of the Year competition.[1]
Eventually Scott Morley left the group and was replaced by Conor Heffernan. The band has appeared at the CMJ Music Marathon and SXSW music festivals and in 2007 will embark on a tour with Third Eye Blind.
