Tonight at The Barns, pop-rockers Ambrosia make their Wolf Trap debut with their
Formed in Los Angeles in 1970, Ambrosia released its first album in 1975 which included hits “Holdin’ on to Yesterday” and “Nice, Nice, Very Nice.” Through the decade they ruled the airways with smooth hits “How Much I Feel”
and “Biggest Part of Me.”
Known for their masterful harmonies, smooth synthesizers, and memorable choruses, California-based band Ambrosia had five Top 40 hits and five GRAMMY nominations in the 1970s and early 1980s.
After disbanding in 1982 to pursue solo projects, three members of the original quartet reunited in the mid-1990s and released their greatest hits album, Anthology, in 1997. Since then, they have been frequently touring, released live the album Standing Room Only, and are working on a new studio album.
The band includes original members Burleigh Drummond (drums, vocals), Christopher North (piano, keyboards, vocals), Joe Puerta (bass, guitar, vocals) along with new addition Doug Jackson (guitar).
"After 40 years, Ambrosia still has some of the best harmonies in the business. Their show was tight, the musicianship unmatched, and they are obviously still loving playing all of their classic hits. ”—Kim Yaffa of Infinity Hall Norfolk
