Award winning songwriter, singer and musician Brian Ray, best known as the ultimate sideman guitarist and bassist for Paul McCartney, takes a step out front in the spotlight and releases his second solo album "This Way Up".

Tracks on the album include the single "I Found You", written by Brian Ray and Oliver Leiber (son of Jerry Leiber of Leiber & Stoller). The song features a guitar marching band with approximately 40 guitars "having a guitar tantrum", along with a big marching drum beat. Notably the song also features some of Ray’s rock star pals: Scott Shriner (of Weezer), drums and bass by Pete Thomas and Davey Faragher (of Elvis Costello’s band) and Adam MacDougal (of The Black Crows) on wild Wurlitzer piano.

The second single "Happy Ending" is a modern rock, post sexual revolution, where the hell are we now? kind of song. "It’s about a guy trolling the internet, hooking up, finding ‘her’, then discovering that HE wants more than just a casual fling, while SHE smiles and slips out the door."

"This Way Up" was recorded and mixed by Joe Zook (Weezer, OneRepublic, Pink, Leona Lewis) and produced by Brian Ray.
