Performers
“They rock like punks, but their vocals are mesmerizing.” - Washington City Paper
D.C. based trio, Ammonite offers up the best features of rock, Americana, and punk with dynamic live shows that get crowds moving, stunning three part vocal harmonies, and cathartic queer confessional lyrics at the intersection of the personal and the political. Whether rocking out at a basement show, headlining a Pride stage, on tour, or playing for a social cause, Ammonite takes the listener on an emotional journey full of angular guitar riffs, soaring vocal lines, and surprising musical storytelling.
