Unsigned Bands: Amber Ladd

Amber Ladd:

Music is not just Amber Ladd’s passion. It’s her life, her soul and her purpose.

 

Born in a small town in Ontario, Canada, Amber is a product of two starkly different cultures – beginning her experiences in absorbing the music of different people from different places. Many different places, in fact. Having moved more times than she can count and having spent plenty of time at plenty of parties enjoying plenty of styles to the fullest, it makes sense that a true expression of herself through music would be a combination of so many of them. And that it would be so unique.

 

Her self-produced solo project tRip vividly expresses to audiences each of Amber’s true life passions: good music, living life to the fullest and, equally important in her opinion – weed. It’s an album for stoners by a stoner, but in addition, Amber is and will always remain (until no longer necessary) a proud, dedicated and outspoken fighter for the cause of legalization – an end to marijuana prohibition. Because the music has so much of her heart in it, it’s not surprising that it’s… well, so tRippy.  

 

Along with vocals not to be forgotten, Amber uses instruments, processors, samples and turntables to put together her multi-faceted electronic musical creations. To her, they are not just tracks, they are steps on her journey exploring her passions, and steps closer to achieving her dream life – which, she would tell you, we are all meant to do.

Yeah I've been answering questions about how to vote the entire contest!!

Just scroll down to the bottom of this page: http://hightimes.com/lounge/ht_admin/6259

You should see a box with images of all 4 bands in it. Click the selection dots next to our heads to vote! If not maybe update your version of flash.

Tonight is the biggest night yet of the vote for me!!! Good things come to those who wait- and work their asses off. And help seems to come just when it's most needed. LOVE YOU ALL!!!! xoxoxoxoxo

NO GUYS, NO- LOL!!!!!!!

********YOUR COMMENTS ARE NOT VOTES!!!!***********

I appreciate them *very* much but they simply don't count. Only one vote per computer for the whole contest, so if you've voted, that's why.

If you HAVEN'T voted- and you don't see buttons on the poll page, try updating flash. The little dot should be in the long box on the poll page with pictures of all 4 bands in it. One for each band.

IF YOU STILL CAN'T VOTE- *****MESSAGE ME HERE, OR ANYWHERE. I WILL HELP YOU!!!!!!!!!!!! DON'T GIVE UP!!!!!! I NEED YOU ALL!!!!****


Again, much love to you guys but

Not sure if this is because I already voted or not but when I came back into the site today to see the bands were doing I noticed the vote buttons were not there beside the bands to vote. I Just hope there is not a glitch in the system somewhere.

**ANYONE SEEING THIS THAT HAS NOT VOTED YET**Please note a comment if you did not see the buttons beside the artists on the main page where you can vote. I'm sure if there is a problem they would like to know.

The below comments should show why I never stop believing. I am very lucky and no vote can change that. No matter what happens here I will do what I have been doing. Making music, smoking weed, following my intuition and trusting in what I feel is meant to be. The details don't really matter. I'll get there- and you'll all be a part of that. A huge part! Thanks so much for the kind words guys, I seriously love you all.

Thanks- so sincerely- to all of you guys. I'd be grateful also to have your support at the end of the month for the vote! Realistically, I don't have even close to the built-in audience of the other bands (yet) who are both awesome. I also know that what is meant to be will be- so I don't worry about that or any other facts. Whether I win or get my butt smoked no joy will be taken from this experience for me. I saw my name on hightimes.com!! I am totally grateful for that and it really doesn't matter what happens from here on out. If you really do like the tracks- more to come! Many, many, many, many, many more- thanks SO MUCH for checking me out. Thanks to HIGHTIMES.com for the incredible honour. Stay high- MUCH LOVE. :-D

The universe is finally granting you your hard earned, fought with tooth and nail, wish. Your blood, your sweat and many of your tears are soaked and imbued in your music, and it shows. No one is more deserving of this title, and come the end of February, I think we all know who will be winning the unsigned artist of the month. Good things do come to good people, you just gotta ask. Pretty sure you told me that once. :)
