The Ambience Affair release their debut album Burials on Bluestack Records this October. Originally comprised of a Vocalist/Guitarist Jamie Clarke and Marc Gallagher on drums, The Ambience Affair became a three piece last year when Yvonne Ryan joined the band. (bass/vocals/keys).


Jamie had been playing and writing alone up until three years ago when he then met Marc in the music shop they both worked in. After going to one of Jamie's solo gigs, Marc joined him and the band was formed.

Their sound is generally comprised by layering looped guitars,keyboards and vocals combining them with driving rhythms and bass. Following the release of their debut EP 'Fragile Things' (2009) and 'Patterns'(2010), The Ambience Affair have gone on to support many highly acclaimed acts such as Field Music, Bell X1, Villagers, Peter Broderick, Jape and Lisa Hannigan among others. Their song 'Parting Patterns' was recently placed in an episode of CSI: NY.
