Born in a Buck’s County barn on a frigid winter night, Drink Up
Buttercup has gained an international following in only one year’s
time. After being kicked out of their practice space for disturbing the
horses, Drink Up was soon besieged with praise in publications like
Philadelphia Weekly, and in blogs such as Almack’s Dance Hall, Ear
Farm, and The Music Slut. With residency offers in both Philadelphia
and New York City, followed by a year’s worth of shows along the East
Coast, Drink Up’s sound has attracted interest from across the pond
when they released their UK first single, Mr Pie Eyes / Gods &
Gentlemen" (Make Mine).

Throughout most of Drink Up Buttercup’s reviews runs a common thread of
excitement and appreciation for the band’s ability to put on a
performance, rather than simply a musical showcase, with constant
comparisons that parallel the spectacle of a circus, the buzz of a
bar-room sing along, and the comfort of a nursery rhyme. Artifact of
Obsession Collection said, “It is great to see a young band with so
much promise and enthusiasm, who are eager and ready to make somebody's
day. They made mine.” The Music Slut called one show “more than just a
breath of fresh air. It somehow managed to lift all jadedness from our
respective souls (a truly difficult feat, indeed).”
