Kut-U-Up is an Indie punk band that formed in the late 90's. The band is made up of Chris Cote on Bass, Brendan Raasch on Drums and Brandon Parkhurst and
Micah Mattson on Guitar. They all sing, but mainly just Chris and Brandon. They went on the Pop Disaster Tour with
Green Day, Blink 182 and Jimmy Eat World. They are mainly what the movie Riding in Vans With Boys was about. In 2002 they let out their First, and so far their only
cd, "Pulled Over...your Eyes are Telling Me Different Son.." The best songs are "Sailed to Far" and "Have's, Have Nots". Brandon and
Micah are also in the band Yovee. And yes, in the movie, Billie
Joe Armstrong branded Chris' Botton with a pool stick.
