Amber Pacific is a pop punk band that formed in 2002 near Seattle, Washington. The band participated on the Warped Tour in 2004 through to 2007. They have released two studio albums: "The Possibility and the Promise" (2005) and "Truth in Sincerity" (2007), and also three EPs: "Fading Days", "Acoustic Sessions" and "Acoustic Connect Sets" (2004, 2006 and 2008 respectively). Also, they have appeared on numerous compilations, including "Warped Tour" and "Hopelessly Devoted to You".

Career

Amber Pacific began as a trio of high school juniors who performed locally in their Federal Way hometown, near Seattle, under the name Follow Through. They participated on the Warped Tour in 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2007, and toured with Matchbook Romance on the Sub City Take Action Tour in spring of 2006.

Ben Harper (originally in Yellowcard) joined Amber Pacific and joined the recording of their second studio album. [ [http://www.punknews.org/article/20269 Ben Harper (Ex-Yellowcard) joins Amber Pacific] . Punknews.org. Accessed June 25, 2008.] Recording started 16th October 2006; Harper left the band before the end of the year. [ [http://www.punknews.org/article/21395 Ben Harper leaves Amber Pacific] . Punknews.org. Accessed June 25, 2008.] The band released their second album, "Truth in Sincerity", in May 2007. The first song released as a single from the album was entitled "Fall Back Into My Life" and appears on the TMNT soundtrack.

Recently, lead vocalist Matt Young left Amber Pacific, to pursue a career in public education as a principal, in "hopes that I can better prepare future generations for what lies ahead". [ [http://www.absolutepunk.net/showthread.php?t=299763 Matt Young Leaves Amber Pacific] . "Absolute Punk.net". Accessed June 25, 2008.] They have since found a new vocalist whose name has not been released. It also said that their third album should be released in early 2009, but will not be released on Hopeless records since the band has fulfilled their three album contract (2 albums 1 EP) and have decided to part ways with the music label.
