Biography
Ambrose, founded by lead vocalist Zak Ambrose, united in Los Angeles in 2005 for
one reason…to spark the volatile fuse that ignites rock music. The band is now
armed to bring their explosive sound to the masses. Ambrose has already begun to
make their distinctive mark in the Los Angeles area, performing numerous shows
at classic venues on the Sunset Strip, including gigs headlining The Roxy, The
Viper Room, The Key Club, and The House of Blues Sunset.
"These guys deliver the Rock Show! And they do it because they love it. A little
bit Guns N Roses, a sprinkling of Ziggy Stardust, a pinch of Led Zepplin and
then toss in a heap of rippin guitar solos and you've got yourself AMBROSE!
American Rock N Roll, sunset strip style."
-- Bill McCoy (Freelance Journalist, US Weekly, Celebrity Babylon - Music
Critic)
With the impending release of the band’s debut self-titled album 'Ambrose', and
the anticipation of embarking on a nationwide tour in '09, Ambrose continues to
feed off the momentum and electricity. Ambrose has been working feverishly in
the studio over the last few months with veteran music industry producer/mixer
Anthony Focx (from the award-winning production team that has produced tracks by
Aerosmith, Motley Crue, and Buckcherry) putting the finishing touches on the
album.
In a recent interview regarding their forthcoming album, the band related, “We
are focused on infusing soulful tones, powerful riffs and unfettered emotion to
bring an uplifting experience to our audience. It is essential for us to blend
the roots from the past with the euphoric ambiance of abstract sound,
optimistically proffering our contribution to the renaissance of Rock N' Roll.
The music is written from the core in an attempt to pull people together and
inspire others to speak and write freely, above and beyond prescribed, formulaic
methods.”
After hearing a sneak preview of the Ambrose album, acclaimed music writer
Jonathan Cott expressed, “…a wonderful, heart opening, passionate album of love,
loss and redemption with spangles of sunlight and shades of U2. An auspicious
debut.”
-- Jonathan Cott – author of “Dylan”, “Back to a Shadow in the Night: Music
Journalism and Writings”: 1968-2001, Co-editor “The Ballard of John and Yoko”
