So so proud to present "Rise", the first single off the upcoming debut 5AM Trio album, “Esoterra”. A departure from my more glitch/downtempo style, It started as a simple song over a 4-on-the-floor beat in a small bedroom in Philly. Then one day at a Trio show in Denver someone turned on the disco ball at the perfect moment, babies were made, and the rest was history. The track evolved into a jammier arrangement, highlighting Keith's dazzling guitar chops in the final section to take it to the stratosphere. Rise is out now on all platforms, DL on Bandcamp!

Keys / Production - Sam Andrus / 5AM

5AM is Philly-based producer, musician, graphic designer, and creative magnate Sam Andrus. Once a student at the Rhode Island School of Design burning the midnight oil in the studio with a soundtrack always in the background, Sam has since forged his inspirations from jazz fusion, funk, and future beats into a style of bass music known to captivate audiences with a spectacle of mesmerizing detail and high resolution sound design. 5AM’s music merges worlds as it expertly weaves electronic production and live instrumentation through creative processing and meticulous mixing. To bring his journey full circle, Sam has expanded his project to form the 5AM Trio, a collaboration complete with live drumming from ZONE Drums (Aaron Harel) and guitar, bass, and pads from Keith Wadsworth. 5AM has soared to new heights, becoming the first electronic music producer to perform at the historic Kings Theatre in New York City for the sold-out Tipsgiving. 5AM is now a seasoned performer who's shared the stage with Tipper, Shpongle, Jade Cicada, kLL sMTH, Detox Unit, Kalya Scintilla, Random Rab, and more, and lived and built strong roots up and down the east and west coasts of the US.
