They have also sold out their debut London headliner, adding a second sold-out date and upgrading and selling out their Glasgow debut in King Tuts.
If Amble’s debut EP, 2023’s “Amble (Live)”, introduced a new musing, trad-tinged trio of songwriters to the Irish music scene, 2024’s highly distinctive “Of Land and Sea” finds the group expanding their sound to an ever-more global audience.
The unique perspective of three individual songwriters creates a peerless body of work that only enhances the nowfamiliar ruminative observations on the world and, more pertinently – the stories unfolding each day within it.
