   About Amber Room @ ZOO’08 HEVY STAGE 9PM, FRIDAY

There's just something about this band that makes the hair
on the back of your neck stand up.
Amber Room started as an acoustic duo, playing heartbreaking
delicacies with whimsical vocal harmonies that would silence
some of the most unforgiving crowds.
It was like casting a spell. It was just Matt and Sueleen back then.
Sueleens natural ability to throw unobvious harmonies over our songs
is breathtaking, making everything sound epic and effortless.

So things have a habit of evolving, expanding, so we did.
Drafting in, what would later be,
the perfect musical compound, comprising of:

The genuinely insane John Rivers on drums.
The absurd kiwi Alex 'Zealand' on Bass,
and the mighty Afro Phil on lead Guitar.
The most talented and bizarre musicians that i ever had
the good fortune to meet.

Now the monster has been created.
There's this feeling, I can't describe, something magical.

Drawing influences from early 90's west coast rock/grunge
bands like Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains
and Stone Temple Pilots, with flavours of hendrix and Super tramp,
the tenderness of Nick Drake and interludes incorporating
traditional spanish, middle eastern and baltic styles.
Sometimes funky, sometimes David lynch soundtrack.
British cynicism with American trailer park frustration.

Striving to be the best that we can,
getting the most out of each other through brutal
honest communication.

Passion and integrity run at the core,
it keeps the fires burning day and night.

Amber Room can be enjoyed with rum,
Neil's Farm cider, liberty caps, weed or a cup of (shit)tea.

PROMOTIONS PRESENT…
ATTILA THE STOCKBROKER

Photobucket

LIVE @ ORANGE STREET MUSIC CLUB
CANTERBURY
FRIDAY 16TH MAY
8.00PM
FIVE POUNDS ON THE DOOR
Sharp tongued, high energy, social surrealist rebel poet and songwriter. His themes are topical, his words hard-hitting, his politics unashamedly radical.
Inspired by the spirit and the ‘Do It Yourself’ ethos of punk rock, and above all by The Clash and their overtly radical, political stance, he started as a punk bass player in 1977 and took the name Attila the Stockbroker in 1980, blagging spots for his poems and songs in between bands at punk gigs. He quickly got a couple of John Peel radio sessions, a deal with London independent label Cherry Red Records and before very long was on the cover of the UK music magazine ‘Melody Maker’. He hasn’t looked back since!

Attila has done about 100 gigs a year since 1982, over 2700 in total, visiting 19 countries, and has published 4 books of poems and over 20 LPs/CDs. In the UK and other English speaking countries he mainly performs solo poems and songs, in mainland Europe mostly with his band Barnstormer, which combines his hard hitting lyrics and what he calls ‘Renaissancecore’ – a melodic punk sound with added violin, mandola and recorders, somewhere between a 16th century peasant band and The Clash!

kept getting an error message whenever i sent you a message. Don't know if you ended up getting it (maybe you got it three times lol) but this is what i said:

Hi guys.
Just wondering, i was trying to buy the album off songcast but you don't seem to be on there anymore. I checked and it seems that the link on your page goes to their front page and when i search for you you don't exist on the site!
HALP!
Also whats the new default photo, is it an album cover? It's lovely :D
