Hey Pump It Up Family!
Alright, let’s talk about Ambassadors of Morning, led by the ridiculously talented Samir Moussa. This isn’t just some band making cool music—it’s a full-on movement.
They’re blending all kinds of musical influences into something that hits you right in the feels. And the best part? They’re building a whole community of superfans who get exclusive behind-the-scenes access, new tracks, and sneak peeks into their creative process. It’s like being part of a secret club where the music just keeps getting better and better!
Now, let’s dive into their latest masterpiece, released by The Sound of LA. Samir Moussa and Victoria Renée just dropped their absolutely captivating cover of “Shallow”—yes, the “Shallow” by Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper. And spoiler alert: it’s GOOD. If you’re a fan of the original, this fresh, soulful spin will give you all the feels.
The backstory? Samir and Victoria met at a pre-Grammy party (how cool is that?), hit it off, and within a week, spent over 20 hours in the studio together. The chemistry is REAL, and you can hear it in every note of their “Shallow” cover. They nailed the emotional depth of the song, and then took it to a whole new level. Samir’s voice is rich and textured, bringing all the depth, while Victoria’s voice is pure magic—angelic and powerful all at once. Together? They’re next-level amazing.
Oh, and fun fact: this track is getting airplay daily on KPIU Radio at 6 p.m., so don’t miss it!
Let’s not forget, Samir Moussa’s voice deserves a special shout-out. People are comparing him to legends like Joe Cocker and Sting, and after hearing this track, you’ll know why.
He’s got that raw, soulful vibe that makes you stop whatever you’re doing and just listen.
And did you know? Samir won the Hollywood Music in Media Award back in 2017 for Best Alternative Song. He started out as a guitarist (how many talents can one person have?!) but luckily for us, he switched to singing.
Now, we get to hear that voice in all its glory. We even had the chance to sit down and interview him—so keep order your copy today to get to know more about the amazing Samir Moussa and the epic movement he’s leading with Ambassadors of Morning, all powered by The Sound of LA!
