"The Snuggle Ups" premiere, Extremely Popular, is a showcase of the energetic, gleeful style that their shows have become known for...bright, dance-inspiring, shamelessly adoring love songs sung with wide-open arms." - PORTLAND MERCURY Childhood friends from the small town of Prineville, Liam Kenna and Brett Whitman played music together for ten years before setting down their guitars and forming The Snuggle Ups in Portland in 2003. The next year, they released their debut album on Lucky Madison, combining heartfelt lyrics about love and friendship with thick electro beats and uber-catchy melodies. Their live show, a sweaty mass of dancing, smiling and life-affirming positivity, has quickly become one of the most beloved in Portland.
