You could say that this album has been in the works for a long time if you consider that the track "Dandelion Dance" was first written a little bit over 10 years ago. As mentioned, Robin, André and Gustav have been jamming together for many years and actually found each other through a bandmember finding site in Sweden around 2011. We had a couple projects on and off mostly playing gigs locally. Corona hit during a break from music and in the middle of the pandemic we decided it was time for a new project and put all our effort in writing the full-length album we always wanted. Said and done, Ember Street was born. To help with the recording and the mixing of the album we found Jakob, who runs Mud Lake Audio just outside Örebro. We bonded really well during the recording, so well in fact that he is now part of the band. 

We don't have an overlaying theme or subject for the songs on the album, we mix both personal and serious topics as well as fun and lighthearted ones. For example, "Searching" is about hubris, vain and to find yourself through someone you love. "Lies" is about a relationship that was doomed from the start to end in disaster, which I think lot of people might relate to. On the other hand, "Struck By Love" is a more lighthearted love song. It actually started out with just that phrase and we thought that it sounds like title of a Kiss song, but alas it wasn't so it became a song of ours. 

To sum up it in some sense feels like this has been a long flight, hence we give you our debut album "Arrival".
