Short Bio
American singer-songwriter, 
Mark Ambrose has been turning 
out songs faithful to the Texas 
folk/roots tradition yet still 
sounding like a much needed 
revival for our modern times.     
His particular charm, laid back 
and charismatic, is deceptively 
simple but also satisfyingly 
profound as the very best of folk 
music should be.




Winner, Song of the Year, Austin Songwriter's Group
2011 Rusted Nail
2012 Broken Down Again
​2013 Shadow on The Moon
​Finalist, Songwriter Serenade, 2013


  “...an easy, engaging voice, and a sure lyrical touch. Ambrose’s songs stand on their own.”  --Grant Alden, No Depression
  "A talent that is sure to be a force in roots country music."   
--  Roots Music Report, Rootsmusicreport.com
    “If the duty of the blues artist is to gather up the charms and sorrows of everyday Joes and Janes, chew them up and spit them back out as catchy tunes–then Mark delivers.” -Wayne Cunningham, Elgin Courier, El;gin, TX
​    “Ambrose has the soul of a romantic….  The lyrics…are simple and straightforward without every being simplistic, the images are memorable, the music matters and the words come from the heart.”   --Tom Geddie, Buddy Magazine, TX
“Ambrose’s main inspiration comes though in the subdued intensity, concise imagery and emotional melodies…”  – John Conquest, Third Coast Magazine, Austin, TX
    “... one of the best country-leaning albums you’ll hear and its strength lies not in production and playing but in the songs.  He conjures an easy Delta drawl through songs…so vivid that they seem like the trade itself, not just the tool.””  –Grayson Currin, Independent Weekly, Raleigh, NC
    “...his sweet, weary voice seeps like dye into the fabric of the arrangements.”  –Michael McCall, Nashville Scene, Nashville, TN
