The trio consists of Amber Navran, Max Bryk and also a Latvian multi-instrumentalist, composer, arranger and producer Andris Mattson, who has gained considerable recognition in the field of soul music, R&B and jazz music. The band started their musical activity thanks to the soloist’s EP album “Speak Up”, which was made while still studying. Back then, on a tour of the album with concerts in the United States, Ambera addressed her band members to accompany the album, and during the tour, the musicians discovered that they had a very similar musical taste, which led to the formation of the band. Initially, the trio focused on the jazz and soul music genres, but during their ten years of existence, in search of new means of musical expression and musical influences, they have come to music that can be best described as an alternative to R&B.
