On Downright Upright, acclaimed bassist Brian Bromberg leads an all-star line-up to create a musical tour de force! Playing both acoustic and piccolo bass, Downright Upright is a complete turnaround from 2006's Wood II. Instead of a traditional trio, this release shines with many new collaborative touches, including those from pianists George Duke and Jeff Lorber, saxophonists Gary Meek, Boney James, and Kirk Whalum, drummer Vinnie Colaiuta, trumpeter Rick Braun, and guitarists Gannin Arnold and Lee Riteneur.

"The umbrella was opening up to include innovative ideas and comfortable melodies that lingered in the mind for a lifetime."
