“AM’s band has a soulful synchronicity. Their music was, oh I know I shouldn’t say it but, groovy.“ - Popwreckoning
Tulsa-born and New Orleans-raised, indie artist AM brings a heady brew the band calls "Indie Lounge Pop", which is a twinkling Anglified folk-rock-pop, caressing Philly soul and funky R&B whatchacallit -- and, best of all, joyously unheard points in-between. AM does all this with an acute, finessing ear for the ancient art of real, true songcraft. Sure, AM's very personal brand of pop is sturdily built, but so are Mack trucks. What we'd like to point your attention to are the brashly bold new shapes he brings to bear on the modern pop song, with, arguably, some of the best bridges and choruses in the bizness. Superbly, subtly drawn arrangements of said material, whether drawing from the Beatles and Badfinger or Curtis Mayfield and Jorge Ben, demonstrate over and again this simple fact of songwriting life: that Imagination and taste is what it's all about . . . and these are, of course, things you couldn't buy with all the gold in the realm.
“AM takes equal parts of classic Americana, folk-rock and pop, and melts
them down into something entirely his own, and he does it with two
things money can’t buy: imagination and taste. These sturdily built
pop songs are graced with ingeniously colorful arrangements and have
that ‘instant classic’ thing stamped all over them” - LA Weekly
