VINYL- Future Sons & Daughters
March 30, 2010
Hello friends, AM here. I am writing this to you to invite you to be a part of my very first vinyl pressing.

Hall & Oates
March 25, 2010
Singer-songwriter AM has an instantly familiar, comfortable quality to his sound. His blend of British invasion rock, soul, and psychedelic pop sounds like Hall & Oates might have in the mid-sixties. The set of tight, well-written pop songs is almost impossible to shake out of your ears once you hear it. The gorgeous blend of acoustic guitar, piano, and soft beat on “The Other Side” give the melodic… (read more)
Maximum Ink Review
March 24, 2010
Cozy consolation from sweet-talking tunes, AM skips, dips and cozies up with revitalized nostalgia. Laid-back enlightenment straddling singer-songwriter folk, sunshine rock and blue-eyed soul circa early seventies, “Future,” fires up smoky, hip-swiveling riffs conjured from snappy brass, deep-fried bass, cantering congas and sly, knowing vocals stretching familiar formulas into tasty upbeat treats.-… (read more)
