Strait Up will send good vibrations straight up your spine and beyond. 🙂 A trio of very talented musicians, with the other magic ingredient, great people. A must see and more importantly, FELT!!! band that will surprise you with great covers and even greater originals. ✨️

Strait Up performed brilliantly at the Mt McKenzie Country Rock Night (2024).
Great sound, great song selection, great energy – thanks Strait Up.
Mark Stephens
Guitarist with Alchemy of Rhythm
Listening to Strait Up takes me back in time to a cool rock and roll era with a twist of b52! With the cool sounding white Ibanez guitar and Julie’s sweet soulful voice, makes out for a great entertaining night.
Judy Underwood
Don’t let the term 3 piece fool you. As all of the great 3 piece bands have also had, their sound is big, brilliant and versatile, owed to such talented and experienced musicians. Complemented by Julie and Phil’s range of vocals and haunting harmonies. Makes for a very dynamic and tight sounding band. With great song choices including some brilliant originals that will keep you dancing or moving in your seats. Always a pleasure to see and hear a strait up performance. A great sounding, extremely talented and versatile band that I have no hesitation in recommending. You won’t be disappointed. 🎼💃🌟

“Well worth getting these guys in if you’re looking for top professional quality, friendliness and versatility in playing a whole range of well-known songs from the 60s to the 80’s. Strait Up have all the ingredients, tight band, experienced musos, a strong female singer, and classic songs so funky your feet can’t keep still”
Kev & Barb Smith
“Strait Up are a fun band of three very accomplished musos. They have each been in the entertainment industry for many years and play a great range of covers and originals. They always have people up on their feet dancing and singing along at their gigs.”
