“Losing Faith In Everything And Emptied On I-10”
Ambergrove is an artist collective, and I don’t usually like artist collectives. I’m not entirely sure why—it’s just that the music they make often comes across as pretentious. We all know what happens to the broth when there are too many cooks. That said, none of this applies to Ambergrove. Their new single, “Losing Faith In Everything And Emptied On I-10,” is a terrific offering.
Drawing on both the production values of the ’80s and the sounds of the new millennium, Ambergrove’s latest track is a genuine pop gem. There’s excellent guitar work, some delightful keyboard flourishes, and outstanding lead vocals. The gospel choir that arrives toward the end serves as the perfect finishing touch, while the lyrical refrain, “I don't want to waste my luck,” is the kind of line listeners will find themselves singing along to in the car on the way to work.
“Losing Faith In Everything And Emptied On I-10” is one of those rare tracks with near-universal appeal for pop fans. I know I absolutely love it.
