The Upsidedown is an alternative rock band from Portland, Oregon, United States.

The band released their debut album, Trust Electricity, in 2004.

Their music has also been featured on the television programs What About Brian, Sons of Anarchy and Trauma.

They have a close friendship with The Dandy Warhols, and have also performed with The Jesus and Mary Chain, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, Richard Butler, David J, Colin Meloy, The Black Angels, The Dears, The Out Crowd, The Village Green, and Spindrift.
