iAm1 have announced that they are to release their debut EP on the 19th March. ‘Watching’ features 4 original tracks and an acoustic version of the title track. The EP showcases the duo in such an auspicious way. Each track is a very unique proposition and shows a great deal of versatility from such a promising young band. The lyrics are emotive, real and often cut rather deep and feature two very distinct vocals.

iAm1 is the sum of 2 people, singer song writer Oli Rose and MC Jamie Wallace. The two met whilst studying music at Westminster University in 2008 when iAm1 was born. They have already caught the attention of a good few people with a very stripped back track called ‘Whispers’ that they made available on their site. Jamie was invited to take part in the BBC Introducing Musician’s Masterclass at Abbey Road by the 1extra team and their tracks have featured on a fair few sites including support from SBTV.

This is not music strategised for a ‘pop’ audience now familiar with the blurring of styles thanks to media savvy artists and labels who recognise that a ‘best-of’ genres approach feeds instant gratification and chart success, it’s just the sum of 2 diverse people who share a passion for creating music together without confines, then putting it out there on their own terms.
