about
A.M. Glory has to get the award for most determined band in the world. Surviving rip-off managers, grueling tours, and even a severed finger, the band has developed a name as one of the hardest working bands in Canada, with a high-energy live show that has found them touring with some of the biggest acts in the country, kept them working steadily for 5 years, and put them in a perfect position to break out as a major international band. Formed in 2004 in Winnipeg under the name Accepting Silence, the band members Kyle Meyer (guitar/lead.vocal), brother Jesse Meyer (bass/vocal) and drummer Jay Mymryk played their first show only three weeks after their first jam – in Minnesota. After the gig, their place to stay and their payment were nowhere to be found, and hours later they found themselves lost, and slept in an abandoned cabin in the woods. Instead of being discouraged, they went on to work harder and released a debut EP “Soma” which sold almost 2000 units, an impressive debut for a new band in Canada. They went on to tour extensively in 2005, two cross-Canada tours and two Western Canadian tours, sharing the stage with a number of major Canadian acts. In 2007 they scored a major coup by recording their next EP “Under This Sky” with legendary punk rock producer Jason Livermore in his studio in Fort Collins, Colorado. Livermore is responsible for the success of bands such as Rise Against, The Ataris and Comeback Kid. They got off to a bad start with Livermore, however.
