Ambrosia was recorded at Patchwerk Studios in Atlanta, Georgia, during the start of 2020, with contributions from drummer Lil John Roberts, guitarists Sheldon Ferguson, Chocolat Costa and Sheldon Ferguson, flutist Rasheeda Ali, and trumpeter Dashill Smith.

Ambrosia marks the second release as part of what Mills describes as Axis Records’ “new era”, which will see the label broadening its scope to include jazz, classical and soundtrack releases.

The album follows Byron The Aquarius’ Apron EP – one of our favourite releases from August.
