Amber Mark is one of those artists who, upon first hearing their music, you ask yourself, "Why isn’t this person really, really famous?" It's a question Stereogum has been posing for quite a while; we named her an Artist To Watch almost five years ago. It's been a long half-decade since then, but last week Mark finally released her debut album Three Dimensions Deep, and once it has a moment to matriculate, I expect the fame pendulum will finally swing in Mark's direction. From start to finish, it's a wonder of sound and texture, blending a mash of genres -- pop, R&B, grunge, bossa nova, reggaeton, dancehall -- and at a whopping 17 songs, it somehow does not overstay its welcome. World, get ready for Amber Mark.
