Jake Troth is a North Carolina native, currently passing time in the Bay Area before heading out here to Colorado for college. The Ups and Downs of Being At The Bottom is his first EP, and he's putting the final touches on it for a spring/summer release. My friend pointed out the semblance to some of the simpler tunes of Coldplay, but noted that "they don't sound like that anymore so it's good someone is filling the shoes." Personally, I find this stuff more compelling than Chris Martin and Co. in its unassuming purity, although I hear the similarities too.
Gram LeBron of Rogue Wave also helps out with two songs on this EP -- the title track (stream on MySpace), and a lovely tune about songwriting and slick grey streets called "Oakland On A Rainy Day". I would posit that there are far too few songs about San Francisco's lesser known cousin to the East, and Jake's tune is a killer offering.
