In the year 1970, four young musicians from the South Bay of Los Angeles, came together to create a new invigorating style of music.

Exploring the possibilities of progressive classical and world influences yet rooted with the soul of the blues and R&B, Joseph Puerta, Christopher North, David Pack, and Burleigh Drummond created a new sound that was defined and recognized as, "Ambrosia".

Originally labeled as America's answer to the progressive invasion of such English acts as "Yes" and "King Crimson", the group quickly proved it was all that and much more as its albums painted aural landscapes covering the gamut of musical styles and attracting the collaboration of such cultural icons as, Leonard Bernstein, Kurt Vonnegut Jr. and Alan Parsons.

Today the band is more alive than ever. The band recently rocked the Jimmy Fallon show with accolades from Jimmy himself ("that’s how you do it!") and has shown it's musical versatility with the ability to play a set of music with Yes and Genesis or glide into their pop hits "How Much I Feel and Biggest Part of Me" with a romantic soul.

With three of the four original members in tact plus the addition of the very talented and inspiring Rick Cowling on keys, acoustic guitar and amazing lead vocals, and the six string ace Doug Jackson on electric guitar and vocals.

Hit Songs Include:

“Biggest Part Of Me”
“How Much I Feel”
“You’re the Only Woman”
“Holdin, On To Yesterday”
