biography
button up was created by Garry John Kane and Ross Mcfarlane around 1998 to
play Hammond jazz instrumental music to play in and around Glasgow
"especially Mark Robbs buff club" as at the time no one was playing that
kind of wonderful music. It developed into something special and produced a
debut album "jazz casuals" in 1999 featuring Paul Gallagher ..boards,
Ally McLeod on guitar, Ken Mccluskey on harmonica, Jim Wingate on percussion and produced by Greg Kane for Kudzu.
After the underground success of "jazz casuals" the band moved on and became players for other bands including - the proclaimers, Marianne Faithfull, Justin Currie, mull historical society, mccluskey brothers, gentle waves, the poems and pat Kane to name but a few.
Since 2004 with the production talent of mark freegard button up have
"in between extensive touring commitments with other bands" been putting the new 10 track album together "No dancin' on the Tables". It features Andy May on all keyboards, guitars by Stuart Nisbet and one track by Brian "the flame" Mcfie. Also featuring the fantastic vocal of
Justin Currie on 3 tracks with additional vocals on 2 tracks by the wonderful Joseph Malik. The horn section on the album consists of Tom Macniven "Trumpets" and Rick Taylor "Trombone" and complete a fine line up. There are 5 tracks that are instrumental keeping with the original button up idea.
Hope you all enjoy the music and thanks for listening.
Take care peace, love and friendship.

THE DIARY Volume 1.5 (20 Years of the Remix) now available for free download at WWW.MUSICOFSUBSTANCE.COM!
“This CD just shows how much Chris Read knows about historic Hip Hop production techniques - Its just a shame he wasn't creating this stuff during the eras he's covering as we would probably rate the man as being up there with Paul C, Pete Rock, Premier and all! - I can't think of another Hip Hop CD I've played so much in years” (ANDY SMITH - PORTISHEAD)
"Chris continues the rap anthology concept of his super-dope 'The Diary' megamix in the shape of a remix project, re-lacing acapellas from 89-2009 with historically accurate beats. 'The Diary 1.5' serves as a great platform for Chris to showcase his ample beat-making skills whilst referencing those who've inspired him." (DJ WOODY - FORMER WORLD ITF CHAMPION)
“Wicked! The perfect companion to The Diary Mixtape. Shows an impressive knowledge of sounds from all eras.” (MR THING - FORMER WORLD DMC CHAMPION)
"Crazy! This is Rap History in the making. Chris proves his production skills on this one to the fullest. A wonderful and refreshing journey through all eras of hip hop. Double thumbs up!" (MARC HYPE - FORMER ITF CHAMPION)
