Backstory:
Born out of the bustling underground music scene of Seattle, Washington, Ample Addition was formed in the spring of 2010. The founding members, Jeremy “Jazz” Zephyr (vocals, lead guitar), Ian “Ink” Kellerman (Drums), and Olivia “Olive” O’Hara (bass, backing vocals), met while studying at the Seattle School of Music. Sharing a mutual love for music and a passion for innovative sounds, the trio decided to form a band. Their music resonated with their own experiences and the zeitgeist of life in the Pacific Northwest.
Over the years, Ample Addition has seen several lineup changes. Yet, Zephyr, Kellerman, and O’Hara have always remained at the core. Their creative chemistry is undeniable and is the driving force behind all the band’s work. They’ve gained a significant following for their dynamic performances and unique sound.

“Cascading Canvases”
Full Song Lyrics:
(Verse 1)
G Em C D
Gathered thoughts, painted in the twilight,
Em C D
Underneath the canvas of the night.
G Em C D
Walking down the memory lanes,
Em C D
Isolated by the rainy pains.
(Chorus)
G Em C D
Cascading Canvases, echo our stories,
Em C D
Lost in the rhythm, amidst the glories.
G Em C D
Cascading Canvases, the colors blend,
Em C D
In this moment, for our hearts to mend.
(Verse 2)
G Em C D
Mystic whispers of the city’s heart,
Em C D
In the melodies, we’re torn apart.
G Em C D
Through the shadows of the chilling breeze,
Em C D
In the echoes, we find our release.
(Chorus)
G Em C D
Cascading Canvases, echo our journeys,
Em C D
Lost in the rhythm, amidst uncertainties.
G Em C D
Cascading Canvases, the colors collide,
Em C D
In this moment, with love as our guide.
