Critically acclaimed singer/songwriter Gabriel Kahane brings his diverse and extraordinary musical vision to THE AMBASSADOR. From Die Hard to the architecture of Richard Neutra, from Blade Runner to the fiction of James M. Cain, from fires, riots and earthquakes to so many who look to Southern California as a panacea, THE AMBASSADOR draws it's inspiration from a multitude of sources to tell intimate, human stories against the backdrop of Los Angeles architecture and popular culture. THE AMBASSADOR explores different narrative approaches for each song. The album was co-produced by Kahane and long-time collaborators Casey Foubert (Sufjan Stevens) Matt Johnson (St. Vincent) and Rob Moose (Bon Iver), and features guest vocalists Shara Worden and Aoife O'Donovan.
