Description:
Ambient has been together for 2 years, playing for weddings, corporate functions, and music festivals. In a short couple years, Ambient has gained a diverse following in the Peoria area. Currently Ambient serves as the house jazz band for Chef Leo's Bistro 320 in downtown Peoria, IL.
Key points: Ambient was the opening guest band for legendary R&B artist Dionne Warwick in 2006. In 2007 Ambient won the ICC RiverCity Soulfest Contest and Ambient will release their freshman album in the summer of 2008.
Band Members:
Ambient is comprised of 3 young men...James, Walt and Andy. Each member became involved with music early on in life and they continue to improve on their crafts. James' primary instrument is the drums, with sax and piano being secondary instruments. James also serves as the bands manager. Walt's main instrument is piano/Hammond B3, with bass guitar as a second love. Walt also has a dual role as Ambient's music director. Last but not least, Andy lays thick grooves on bass guitar for Ambient, but his primary instrument is keyboard and the B3. Again, Andy serves as Ambient's producer. His company is A# Productions where Ambient's first album was recorded and produced.
