The music of the band AMP began as an open ended, genre-defying musical dialogue, created entirely in the Cloud during the COVID-19 lockdown.  It celebrates the transformative power of collaboration and how the spark of musical inspiration is not confined by physical boundaries. The result is an improvisational amalgam of influences from jazz, R&B, blues, and rock. We invite you to join us as we continue this musical dialogue in a live performance environment.
