Alright (Where’s The Music) by the band Open Up, is a fresh indie piece steadily gaining a lot of attention among indie music enthusiasts. It carries a wishful energy of early 2000s alternative rock and indie pop charm.

Open Up, the band, was a part of the music scene in the 90s from Southeast London. They got back together in 2023, rediscovering old songs, and are on the journey together to make new music again. The band comprises of three members: Toby Carter, who is the songwriter, vocalist, and guitarist; Peter Steel, who is in charge of bass and backing vocals; and Lee Martin on the drums. Together, they are a tightly knit trio, and Alright (Where’s The Music) is an indication that they are a band worth watching out for.

The song has a restless energy to it, a sense of longing for something just out of reach. The song carries a blend of shimmering guitar riffs and zesty drums and vocal delivery that sounds like an anthem. As soon as the song plays, you’ll feel like you are transported to a music festival stage. You feel young and energized as the song plays. It’s like finding an old song with the sound you knew you once loved, and while listening, you realize that it still has so much to say to you. It’s a song that you can put on repeat and enjoy it with the same energy every single time it starts playing.
