AMJ. A collective of musicians from the UK, Cuba, Colombia and beyond. The band is fronted by the duo of sisters Oriana Melissa and Maria del Mar. Fired by the drum and bass duo of Andy Clarke and Mark Spence and produced by John Hollis, once members of Restriction - prominent players in Bristol's reggae explosion in the 80s. The project began as a refreshing exploration of Reggae and Dub, allowing the collective of musicians, engineers, designers and artists to pour their worldly influences into the cradle of roots drum & bass. AMJ has presented itself in various forms, namely AMJ Space, AMJ Dub Collective, AMJ Collective, AMJ Almighty Groove - all distinct expressions of what the reggae foundation can develop. The AMJ Collective has been releasing fresh, modern dub tracks over the last few years steadily building a solid reputation for an original sound. Their first album, Sky Blue Love, a collaboration with dub maestro Rob Smith (RSD, Smith & Mighty), came out in 2016 to wide acclaim across the world. Time to take their music to the stage, AMJ have now created a ten-piece band for an uplifting live experience featuring soulful songs and deep dub workouts. “Whenever I see the name AMJ Collective I know I’m going to be in for something special, something different, something unique” David Rodigan. “Deeply rooted in reggae … pushes boundaries and takes reggae to new and exciting places”.
