With the completed lineup finally coming together in 2007 AMBER ROOM had a fantastic first year in service having been deemed good enough by local promoters and Organisers to play along side the likes of Mystery Jets, Los Campesinos, Art Brut, Black kids, Lightspeed Champion, The Bees, Filthy Dukes and Kitty Daisy and Lewis, and sharing the stage with Hijak Oscar at the Lounge On The Farm festival.
Reputation started to spread, and on the back of simple word-of-mouth and gorilla style advertising we were asked to play at Zoothousand '08 festival with The Cribs, Athlete, Funeral For A Friend, Bloc Party, The Rumble Strips, Hadouken, and Does It Offend You, Yeah?
We are currently recording our debut EP, working closely with our producer Nick Mayes who cut his teeth at the world famous BBC Maida Vale Studio.
REVEIWS
'Amber Room thrive on the snobbery of the more purse-lipped purists who get into a terrible lather of conflict and prissiness when confronted by songs as stirring as they are manipulative and immediate. All five members have such virtuousity that they manage to interweave the subtlest lifts with epic waves that hit you in the face before turning you to putty'. - KM review
'Having formed in 2007 from the ashes of a pathologically unambitious and directionless north Kent music scene, and channeling the spirits of the early '90's west coast Grunge scene and '70 driven British rock, Amber Room have, through constant gigging, developed a sound that could fill the Grand Canyon with exquisite detail, such is their grasp of the epic'. - JW, The London Paper
"I get to hear a lot of tracks from bands who think they are "amazing", "unique", "the next big thing"..........etc. It's refreshing to hear a band that is genuinely different". - Bob Cranham, Producer (Newton Faulkner)
We spend our time writing, playing and recording music at New Day Studios, or rehearsing at an abandoned coastguard lookout in Whitstable to passing ships, meanderer's, dogs, and birds partaking on their north/south migration.
