SINGLE REVIEW: AMBERS – New Love

Having emerged with their debut single only last year, it is clear that AMBERS are doing something very, very right. The Liverpool pop outfit have received support from BBC Radio 1, sold out multiple headline shows, and have established a steady amount of monthly listeners on streaming platforms. Every step that the band takes seems to take them from strength to strength, and that is certain to continue with their gorgeous new single.

Combining gloss and grit in a perfect balance, ‘New Love’ sees the band layering sumptuous synths atop of a robust foundation of danceable, driving rhythms and soaring guitar work. It’s a rich and maximalist approach that crashes over you as a free-spirited ode to making the most of the moments we are given for love.

The vocal melodies are understated yet brilliantly infectious, diving into the shimmering layers of musicianship and reemerging only to pull you in with them. Bold choruses will have you singing along after only your first listen, simply begging to be played on a late summer festival stage. The guitar solo in the track’s climax is wonderfully executed, carrying the track out on a fiery high note that permits the controlled pop gloss to give way to celebratory catharsis.

AMBERS take no shame in calling themselves a pop outfit, and that clear vision and strong sense of identity permits them to create absolute anthems that demand a place on your summer listening rotation. ‘New Love’ promises to be the next step of a brand new era for the band, so there’s never been a better time to find out just why the people in the know know AMBERS.
