"Don’t call it a comeback. Call it a throwback. In a good way ... a consistent slate of undeniably hooky fare ... the sound of a veteran craftsman doing what he does best and enjoying himself in the process. Adams still leaves you wanting more. In a good way." - Toronto Sun Get Up, the first new material from Bryan Adams in seven years, is a solid collection of well crafted songs ranging from fast and furious uptempo rockers to gentler numbers, produced by Jeff Lynne and co-written with Adams' longtime partner Jim Vallance. Alongside the nine new tracks, Adams has included acoustic versions of four of these songs which he produced himself, revealing another layer of the tunes and highlighting Adams' unique voice and depth. "It came together quite organically, song by song, working with Jeff producing over the past couple of years whenever he had time. It was a great partnership as it gave me plenty of time to write the songs, most of which are a collaboration with Jim Vallance. We all worked primarily over the internet from Canada, Europe and LA, sending demos and parts of songs until we got it right." - Bryan Adams "I've always been a big fan of Bryan so getting to work with him was a great pleasure. Bryan would send me a demo across the internet, then I would play most of the instruments to make a finished backing track and send it back to him in England. There he would put the lead vocal on to the song and send it back to me in California, 5,400 miles apart! And it's turned out to be a rockin' album!" - Jeff Lynne
