Hello Friends,

I heard some talk of me getting Best New Artist of the Year... Ah Shucks!!!! Hey if you want to give me that distinction I’ll be thrilled to accept however it’s better said as “Recently Discovered New Artist of the Year” I’ve been around too long to be “Best New Artist”

I can’t tell you how much I worry about all of you and the Freakin Covid 19 Virus, I want all of you to stay safe wear a mask even if you feel It’s being shoved down your throat please just protect yourself and follow the safety guidelines so that when this virus is over... We can all meet up and listen to some live music again... I can’t wait to play a show in your neck of the woods and begin to show my appreciation for all the amazing things your support of me as an artist has done to keep me going. If your like me you must have Cabin Fever... I live in an Actual cabin in the National Forest in Southern California and trust me as beautiful as it is here I’ve got Double Double Cabin Fever... I’ve got it bad I need to meet and hug and just touch another human being... I’m starving for human contact and even more so “Musical Expression” I’ve said this before bar none My Followers here at N1M have been my biggest inspiration no one has given me more reasons then you have to keep this going. I think your all among the best music fans I’ve ever had the pleasure to know. To those of you here in the USA we have to get back to loving each other’s differences if we don’t... I don’t honestly know if we will make it... we have so much more in common than we do in our differences... if we could all just take a step back and see a stranger as a possible friend and not an enemy it would all get so much better. Im not preaching I’m just saying if everyone tries a bit harder to empathize with someone who may look a bit different or talk a bit different or marry a bit different we can all be left alone to live the life that makes us happy.

We have got to be better and smarter than our Racist neighbors we have to set an example that we have enough love to share for another being than to discard them... we are all one thing (people) and we can be so much kinder then we’ve been. Yes there are people out there that can destroy you and take away everything you love but don’t get jaded it’s poison to your soul to become angry and cynical.

I honestly care about all my listeners here... so much so I I worry about all of you!

BTW I do have new music to release and you’ll be the first to know when it’s released... it’s a matter of getting into a Recording Studio which is no easy task till we get vaccinated and return to our previous lives. We’re almost there so stay the course protect yourself I pray we will meet soon.

Love to all!

Happy New Year
We can do better than we did last year... I Respect You and I believe in you...

All the best...

I Thinkl I Need 2 Share With U. - Listen on N1M

Just a quick note to let you know I’m thinking of you. .. My N1M followers are my favorites no one has supported my efforts more than you have and I’m truly grateful for all you have done. I’m not here all that often anymore I don’t have the premium account here anymore either so We’re limited to what we can play at will. I am over at Spotify lately and I could use your support there. If anyone wants to let me know that they’re going to follow me over to Spotify... please do and I’ll reward you with a free download of one of my songs I would definitely love to see all of you there

With love,

Mark Ambuter

Please wear a mask and say safe...

Brand New Song To Check Out... However First... A Huge Heartfelt Thank You To all of you supporters and friends here on N1M you folks are undeniably the best followers one could ask for I’m approaching a million plays too bad they don’t pay royalties on this site... To everyone who stays in touch by sending me a note now and then... you guys are inspiring to say the least...

About this new song this is one of the more interesting ones it’s kinda Prog Rock it’s a bit long and it has some cool parts... it was produced by Stuart Epps (Led Zeppelin) I’m pretty happy with the way it turned out it takes a few listens for it to sink in However it’s a nice to get back to playing harder Rock after songs like “Love is Everywhere”

To wrap this up I hope Everyone is Following their dreams “like there’s anything else that matters as much as playing and writing music” I listen as often as I can to your music and am amazed by it all. If anyone has a Spotify account please follow me there it’s nearly impossible to get followers there.
All the best,
Mark

This is a Brand New Studio Recording of my Homemade Demo "All Is Beautiful". The only reason I Recorded it is because so many of you bothered to write to me, telling me that the song was important to you and that it lifted you up and it gave you some hope in your own struggles everyday,
I wanted to give you back something that would let you know how much your support has meant to me... You told me how much this simple song meant to you... So with the help of Legendary Producer Stuart Epps... This Was Recorded in Stuarts Studio in London, England over the past few months, Special for my followers on N1M... I give this to All of you... "All is Beautiful 2018" Now affectionately Titled "Love is Everywhere" Because... I believe it really is... I hope you all enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed recording this all new Studio Version for you... I can't express how much your notes and letters changed the state of my mind and my heart... you folks turned my life around and gave me reason to keep creating... When I came here a little over a year ago... it had been years since i recorded anything new... I had no confidence that i could ever write or record anything meaningful again and you guys were so gratiously supportive of my efforts it turned my life and my music around... Thank you so very much... This Songs for You...
Sincerely Mark Ambuter

I thought I’d bring to everyone’s attention that independent artists like myself depend on our fans for survival in a hard as nails industry... like the music business... We need our most devoted fans to support our way of life and to keep us creating beautiful music.

Please Consider purchasing a song or two along with enjoying the free streaming services that are literally everywhere on the internet.
I love that everyone can listen to my songs free of charge to see if they like them enough to adopt one.
However if you really like one, let me know... or any independent Artist by getting one to go for a buck. You have no idea how good it feels to find out someone loves your music enough to put their money where their hearts are...
You guys are the best and I just wanted to raise awareness for the struggle all artists face to keep it all going and put the thought in your mind to consider supporting the millions of Independent artists the way you do when you purchase a streaming service or buy a CD or a Record Album... From myself and all my fellow independent artists in the world... We love making beautiful music just for you and we will keep doing it whether we get paid or not... just give it some thought the next time you’re playing someone’s Inspired and under Supported Music to throw them some love and spend a buck thats all it takes is a buck to make us aware you care... As You Were... Thank You and God Bless.

I have to be honest I never expected anyone to take much notice of my work this time around. I had my 15 minutes in the past and didn't seriously think I would still be of interest musically to you or anyone for that matter. So many of the songs I've posted are home studio recordings of me and friends. However you showed me... This week A Strangers Eyes is Number 1 in the US... Pretty Cool... I have recorded a lot of music in my life and could have leaned on it and just cruised along but a couple of months into this 2nd go round... I felt a bit like a ringer so I decided to start recording again and that led me to Stuart Epps a Legendary Producer... which by sheer serendipity fell into my creative life like a lighthouse in a storm... he gave me a chance to do something I'd never had the opportunity to do in the past.
That was to record some straight forward pop songs... there's a lot of fast and furious Rock and Punk influences present throughout my song list... insane rhythms that fall into melodic pot holes... but the 2 newest tracks are true guilty pleasures and doing these new pop songs which are well seated in music of the 1960's and 1970's (Before My Time by the way, I wasn't old enough to pick up a record... yet alone to get what it was about) I grew up loving the music of that era Beatles, Badfinger, T-Rex, I've always been behind the popular curve in music but happily the new studio recordings have truly cemented my link to the era of the British Invasion Stuart Epps saw to that...however it really lit the flame under my *ss to keep creating. "Get Out While You Can" and "You Make Everything Alright" are both my favorite tracks right now up there with "A Strangers
Eyes" even though I wrote Strangers Eyes in 10 minutes and considered it a throwaway it has over time become pretty much my signature sound along with The Window and Laughing and Crying all decent pieces but nothing as personal as "Get Out While You Can" i'm glad you folks agree that "Strangers Eyes" And "Get Out While You Can" are my best they are the 1 and 2 my most played songs... One from the past and one from just a few months ago...if not just to prove I'm not just phoning it in...
I haven't written a BIO yet so this little note will give you some insight into who I am and my feelings about my music.
FYI I'm in the process of recording 3 new songs with Stuart in England he's there in London and I literally do phone in my lead vocal from Los Angeles sounds pretty exotic it's really not and more of a handicap as I would prefer to record my vocals with Stuart in attendance I tend to need some coaching as to the proper approach on any particular song...
I had some very tuff periods that led me back to my music so I want to add that to have you very kind folks receive me so well was more heartfelt than you could know...

Thanks for giving me a light at the end of a very dark tunnel... I owe all of you a Warm Beer... hopefully soon... at a Charming English pub... I'm really looking forward to it...

Cheers for now... Mark XO
