THE AMBER LIST

Following the success of their 2019 EP, ‘The Ever Present Elephant’ THE AMBER LIST are back with their first album ‘The Ache of Being’.

Poised for release in April 2021 it captures the band at their very finest. With a sound that many have likened to James, The Smiths and The LAs, their northwest roots evidently shine through. There is a real depth to their songs and their strong social commentary is complimented by powerful melodies and harmonies and driving guitars that move the dial from alt folk to indie and back again.

The Amber List create beautifully textured soundscapes that display their talent as songwriters at the height of their craft. They make serious music for discerning listeners.

WEST ON COLFAX

Their North Western blend of alt-country rock, has a warmth to it. Borne from road-worn voice of Alan Hay. With lyrics that tell the classic tales of love, heartbreak, sadness yet with glimmers of hope, of good people who've lived tough lives, played & felt by the band.

“Their blend of alt-country rock and rootsy Americana is both nourishing and comforting. There’s a lovely foot tapping, head nodding feel to every track on their debut album, Barfly Flew By and the whole LP has a huge warmth to it, like a hug from a long lost friend.” Slacker Shack
