User:EMBR BAND

Ember formed in the Birmingham, Alabama region is 2015 and despite the relative youthful persona of the band, they are a unit that is highly dedicated to both vintage aesthetics and progressive modernism. The collective within Ember embraced the pursuit of the audible dichotomy, meaning they sought to navigate and ultimately blur the lines between strength and beauty, heaviness and the soft appeal of alluring intensity.

Their simple mission statement was to find the happy medium between both sonic worlds, to walk with one foot in somber density and the other in a place of blissful, uplifting tranquility. Something simple yet loud with complexity, grunge qualities, even abrasive at times, but offset with beauty and calm.

2016 saw Ember set forth their '261' EP, a recording that introduced a larger scale audience to the dark beauty emanating from the band. The EP, along with Ember's growing support, helped open many doors for the act. Once they stepped into them, people were astounded to discover the conflicted sonics that Ember embodied.

Now, one year later, Ember are on the verge of releasing their greatest recording yet, the '271' EP. With new guitarist Craig Shadiz joining singer Crystal Bigelow, bassist Jeremy Allen and drummer Erik Bigelow, the quartet are on a meteoric ascent. The newest era of the band showcases a mighty progressive leap forward in all departments, from songwriting to recording, execution and live presentations. Repeatedly astounding fans old and new alike, Ember are on a rising trajectory and fast becoming one of the finest examples of multi-genre doom music there is available anywhere at this time.
