The Upper Room were a pop band based in Brighton, UK.
Sony Records were brought to the band’s studio via mutual friends and they were signed in time for their first single, “All Over This Town”, in summer 2004. The single’s 2006 video featured actress Kate Sissons - who also appeared in the video for their second major single release - “Black and White” in April 2006.
The band members were from the South of England, and met while attending Brighton University: Alex Miller (vocals and guitar), James “Jim” Pattinson (lead guitar), Beau Barnard (bass), Jon Barnett (drums).
The band split in November ‘06.

Hi, I'm looking for the mp3 of the demo/acoustic version of Black and White, can anyone help me out? If it was a B Side to one of the singles, it ain't on iTunes, the 10 versions of the track available are either the single, album or live versions. Good but not right. If anyone knows where I can download it, legally of course, a heads up would be great. Cheers, Bren

Black & White was the song that got me through my second year exams at uni, great for a big release of pressure! 'Your Body' was also a top top tune in my opinion. This album really slipped under the radar, I agree that it was one of the best from 2006
