Amoeba: Pivot

“Pivot” pushes Amoeba’s diffuse and hypnotic sound into a finely etched excursion towards universal emotional landscapes, hinting at elements beyond our control. Molded from influences of British folk-rock, organic ambience, psychedelia and personal unveiling, “Pivot” sounds more melodic and discreet than Rich & Davies debut “Watchful” but still dreamy and introspective, a worthy successor and a unique experience in the realm of introspective songwriting.

Robert Rich – voice, piano, harmonium, synths, steel guitar, flutes.
Rick Davies – electric and acoustic guitars.

with:
Don Swanson – drums
Andrew McGowan – bass
