The Upsessions are a boss reggae band from The Netherlands. They played at all major ska & reggae festivals in Europe. A tight and swinging rhythm section with frugal organ themes, horn section, beautiful polyphonic vocals and catchy melodies make this company a special band with a unique and very recognizable sound.
Boss Capone started as a side project when The Upsessions took a break after a 6 week tour. Ten years later Boss Capone became a band of their own - still with a personnel overlap with The Upsessions - and a fourth full length album is available soon.
