About Me

"One of the best emerging new U.S. bands you've never heard of."
-- Jack Rabid, The Big Takeover

Hailing from Portland, Oregon, the psychedelic pop quartet UHF formed in 1998. In 2000, the lads released the concept album LOTTERY which garnered national critical acclaim and nationwide college radio airplay. In 2002, UHF released IF IT WAS EASY. Produced by pop mastermind Gregg Williams (whose credits include Dandy Warhols and Sheryl Crow), IF IT WAS EASY earned critical acclaim, radio airplay and television sound bites. Extensive touring of the West Coast followed in 2003 and 2004.

UHF's latest record, ALL OUR GOLDEN TOMORROWS, released nationally January 2006. The disc has been receiving critical acclaim and West Coast radio play.

ALL OUR GOLDEN TOMORROWS is available to be purchased now at CDBaby and at iTunes .
