3.33 am is the self-produced debut EP from NYC songwriter and vocalist Amber Mark, released via PMR Records. A collection of confident, soul-bearing tracks inspired by the loss of her mother in 2013, the EP includes lead single 'Lose My Cool' and latest release 'Can You Hear Me?', which was premiered exclusively by Zane Lowe as his World Record last week.

Spending her formative years travelling the world and imbibing music, art and culture alongside her mother, Amber Mark's artistry is a kaleidoscopic mix of influences. From the jazz, soul and Indian classical music she listened to at home to the hip-hop and downtempo electronica she soaked up along her travels, these influences are reflected on 3.33 am, a collection of songs that tell the story of the loss of her mother in 2013, as well as her resulting experiences of grief, acceptance and overcoming. Each track on the EP is formed around a stage of her grieving process; "regret, anger, Isolation, sadness, questioning and overcoming. Those were my stages." Despite the themes at the core of this EP, the music is fresh and filled with optimistic melody. "I didn't want it to be this sad, depressing EP" said Amber, "I wanted it to uplift people who had gone through it." 3.33 am is entirely written and produced by Amber herself.

Alongside the EP, Amber today shares a stunning visual for the track 'Monsoon'. The video retraces the steps Amber and her mother Mia took on their travels through Rajasthan, beautifully captured by director Joe Alexander. The track follows Amber's first video for 'Lose My Cool', the track that stormed the Spotify viral chart to its peak of #6 and cemented Amber as a breakthrough artist for the year. Amber has also been chosen as Apple Music's New Artist of The Week in March. This summer, Amber will be making her first stop in the UK on June 6th at The Waiting Room, followed by a very special, late night free-entry show at Birthdays on June 9th. More live dates to be announced shortly.

Way Back

San Eco combines the unique approach of two musicians, one with a footing in innovative electronica, the other in bombastic indie pop. Five years in the making, their debut album San Eco finds them drawing influences from Fela Kuti to Slint, Nathan Fake to R.E.M, into a delicate and emotive electronic alt rock treat.

Morris Cowan (Adam Taylor) cut his teeth in the electronic music scene in the mid-noughties, and since then has released for Nottingham based Wigflex imprint and German label Zaubernuss. He has built up notable admirers, having had his tracks championed by Mary Ann Hobbs and Tom Ravenscroft on their BBC Radio 6 Music shows.

Tom Edney’s brand of alternative indie songwriting has also earned him a considerable following. Never shying away from ambition, his alternative rock music has him drawing inspiration from varied subjects like Victorian Gothic Monasteries on Manchester housing estates, to his Lynchian inspired dreams. His efforts such as ‘Hands On’ and The Manchester Underground EP have earned him plays on many platforms as well as on BBC Radio 6 Music.

It was during the recording of Cowan’s ‘Six Degrees’ and Edney’s EP, that the two actually became aware of each other’s music - listening in through a wall between neighbouring studios. Cowan tabled an offer of a session, and five years of creativity and hard work later, they are finally ready to release their debut album San Eco, on Manchester label Beatphreak.

The album is set to turn heads on its release on 2nd August, with the self-titled first single, 'San Eco', out now. Their second single, 'Pretty Curtains' will be released 9th June, with an exclusive 'Jauge' remix on the flip. Each single will have an accompanying video and four more videos are set to support the album later in the year.
