The collective believes strongly in inclusivity through music, and have worked hard to work alongside different communities, in order to raise their profiel through music. Their interests include the likes of The Doors, Led Zeppelin, and Frank Zappa, but lyrically and vocally they remind us of Lou Reed.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">For the release of &#8216;Big Wave&#8217;, Way Up worked with a local LGBT community, with whom they worked to produce a music video to accompany the single, &#8216;Sally And Lacey&#8217;, which tells the story of two women who meet, fall in love, get married, and live happily ever after.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><div class=\"jetpack-video-wrapper\"><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IP_0cSK6NHA?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/div><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">[space height=&#8221;10&#8243;]<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Big Wave&#8217; is available from <a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/ke\/album\/big-wave\/id1290652233\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">iTunes<\/a> and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/us.7digital.com\/artist\/way-up\/release\/big-wave-6941901\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">7 Digital<\/a>.
