During this performance, The Uma is being force-fed cake and having things thrown in their faces. This is to signify the meaning of the lyrics &#8211; the contrast feeling between the elated highs we feel and the immense lows.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The band explains that,<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201c&#8217;Wake Up&#8217; is a song for any moment. Whether you\u2019re sad, happy, angry, confused, or just having a moment, it lifts and separates you from everything that\u2019s going on around you. Lyrically, the songs just one big emotional juxtaposition and we\u2019ve tried to capture that throughout the video.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Members Phil, Dan, and Ben met through work and mutual friends. Each member was bought up surrounded by music. They all have fond memories of music playing in their family homes, driving the urge to want to be in a band from a young age. It was this love for music that connected the members who eventually became &#8220;The UMA&#8221; later in life.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8216;Wake Up&#8217; is now available to stream through\u00a0<a class=\"_e75a791d-denali-editor-page-rtfLink\" href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/6VlYHO8c7ifCs6qL2vrP6G?si=5tUisoW6RmKS6hB6wfOKig\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Spotify<\/a>.
