  East London 23y/o Brandon Ambrose is that rare breed of pop star who has both poster boy good looks but also writes and sings with a knowing lyricism relatable to all. Brandon tells a meaningful autobiographical tale about being lost in addiction on ‘Keep Me Breathing’ and the redemption which follows. His country pop style fused with acoustic rap recalls hints of early Sheeran , Timberlake , Fender , Capaldi and is undoubtedly a powerful launch into the beginnings of a dream realised in music.  On ‘Keep Me Breathing’ Brandon explains, “I wrote this song about getting clean from drugs and alcohol, from which I have now been for a number of years. Despite its short duration, I believe it perfectly encapsulates not only the pain I experienced from addiction, but also the hope I have found in recovery” .  Brandon Ambrose is keen to make it today as a musician, but his proudest achievement is his sobriety and his hope of being able to inspire others with this song and many more to f

ALYX Ryon & Jumbled - The Greatest Show on Earth

Image
In October of 2021 – ALYX surprised Jumbled with 2 recordings over his beats– but unfortunately, one of them had been used. So Jumbled flipped a new sample over the drums and now we have “Kanye Shxt” . This inspired him to send more unused beats to AR and started the evolution of this album - The Greatest Show on Earth . They kept trading tracks back and forth over email – but with some – ALYX would twist it and change it to bring it more to life (and not just rap over the finished track.) Finally – the finished program – 15 tracks along with an intro and 3 interludes weave together a story that includes wrestling, faith, wearing glasses, Richard Mille , Bobby Digital and Family Ties .
