SCOTTISH ALTERNATIVE
ROCK DUO MIDNIGHT
AMBULANCE RELEASE
SECOND SINGLE ‘5AM’
OUT NOW
Last year, old friends Fraser (guitar/vocals) and Amelia (drums/vocals) reconnected after losing touch for many years. When lockdown hit, they began collaborating as a creative and cathartic outlet. Their musical partnership quickly developed into something bigger, writing 70 songs by June 2020. On Amelia’s return to Scotland, after eight months of writing together via video call, they finally had the opportunity to jam live and decided to form Midnight Ambulance.
In February 2021, they released their debut single ‘Black Gloves’ which quickly gained the attention of national media, including a BBC Scotland Introducing premiere, BBC Alba Single of the Week and The Scotsman on Sunday Artist of the Week, with 15+ national radio plays in the first fortnight from BBC Radio Scotland (Vic Galloway & BBC Introducing), BBC Alba (Rapal), Amazing Radio (Jim Gelletly & Charlie Ashcroft), and 70+ playlist features including Creative Scotland, Fathersunday (Fatherson) and Charlie Ashcroft’s Fresh Finds.

“The debut single by Midnight Ambulance, Black Gloves is a brilliant first step. Ominous, looming and with a real sense of menace, the duo conjure a unique atmosphere with Amelia’s heartfelt vocal and pounding drums front and centre, elegantly accompanied by Fraser’s playing and production. This is a serious opening salvo and promises greatness in whatever they do next. As a listener, I am excited and slightly scared!!” Vic Galloway, BBC Radio Scotland.
“Amelia’s voice is sort of angelic which kind of doesn’t go with the darker music but in a really good way, it really works. Definitely going to keep an eye on these guys.” Shereen Cutty, BBC Introducing.
“Amelia’s angelic vocals delivered against a dark, enveloping instrumental, one driven by throbbing guitars and unconventional rhythm patterns. Inspired by lockdown and its effect on their personal relationships, it’s a hypnotic listen and a mesmerising debut.” (Tenement TV)
