Amber Mark official bio:

In 2019, Amber Mark was in her bedroom in New York, working through a thicket of feelings. The multi-talented performer couldn’t shake a lingering sense of imposter syndrome. “I was questioning myself a lot, in terms of being an artist, a producer, a singer, a writer. I felt like I could do all of those things, but I couldn’t do any of them really well.” Even with hundreds of millions of streams, a co-sign from Sade and two successful projects to her name by her mid-twenties, she still felt unsure.

Amber has never shied away from complicated emotions. She first wowed listeners in 2017 with EP 3:33am, delving into grieving the tragic death of her mother. In 2018, she turned to the intricacies of romantic love on the deeply rich, multi-genre Conexão EP.

Sheltering in place during the pandemic let Amber stop and reflect on just how deep Three Dimensions Deep could go. So much of this debut’s reflective maturity and musical ingenuity is rooted in Amber’s upbringing. She lived an unconventional early life, spending a nomadic childhood with her free-spirited mother Mia Mark, after being born on a “spiritual midwifery farm” in Tennessee. The family moved every few years, imbibing the sounds, textures and cultures experienced between Munich, Goa, Berlin and Nepal, before ending up in NY and Miami as Amber hit adolescence. Mia, an artistic music-lover, was her anchor. She scraped together the money for Amber’s first guitar. They were a team. Since her mother’s passing in 2013, their connection has remained strong.

Mixer lyrics:

Gonna get in your mind, one fine day
Gonna figure you out, one fine day
Dear Lord, maybe I should stay away, stay away
Little lost, little blind, blind with temptation

Tell me something, do I make you feel the way that I do?
I been uptight, you got me right, I'm back into my groove
Keep it bumpin’, give me something that I could get used to
I'm a fire, gotta keep me lit all night, all night, they say

And they say my heart will bleed
But it doesn't matter to me
’Cause your love is so nasty
Boy, yeah, yeah, yeah
In the dark, I'm living the dream
When you pull up behind me
Like a mixer, whipping that cream
Boy, yeah, yeah, yeah

Every night, club lights, touch your face
Every night I try to find out what's on your brain
Dear Mama, help me know just what to say
'Cause I don't wanna be blind with temptation

Tell me something, do I make you feel the way that I do?
I been uptight, you got me right, I'm back into my groove
Keep it bumpin', give me something that I could get used to
I'm a fire, gotta keep me lit all night, all night, they say

And they say my heart will bleed
But it doesn’t matter to me
’Cause your love is so nasty
Boy, yeah, yeah, yeah
In the dark, I'm living the dream
When you pull up behind me
Like a mixer, whipping that cream
Boy, yeah, yeah, yeah

You hit me late night with "Can I come over?"
Put you on replay in my mind, all slow-mo
I’m wide awake, my body shakes and it shivers
I'm a fool, I guess 'cause I text you "Yes"
Even though my friends, they say

And they say my heart will bleed
But it doesn't matter to me
’Cause your love is so nasty
Boy, yeah, yeah, yeah
In the dark, I'm living the dream
When you pull up behind me
Like a mixer, whipping that cream
Boy, yeah, yeah, yeah
