Amiture, the long-time project of Brooklyn-based artist and musician Jack Whitescarver, is now Amiture Music. The overall endeavor began in Whitescarver’s college apartment in the Hudson Valley in 2018 and has taken a myriad of identities since—though its diverse sonic and aesthetic sensibility has always been led by the frontman’s distinct artistic vision and driving vocals. The synth-heavy debut album, The Beach, was released in 2021 as a solo project, followed by 2024’s Mother Engine, a collaboration between Whitescarver and guitarist Coco Goupil, which introduced a moodier and more industrial sound palette. The latest iteration is an experimental rock quartet that is quintessentially New York, both shaped by and in opposition to the city’s cluttered music scene. It’s “four normal guys making crazy music,” says Whitescarver, who provides vocals and guitar. New York natives Justin Fossella and Max Berine Shafer are on drums and bass respectively, and multi-instrumentalist and percussionist Allie Wrubel, who hails from the Bay Area, completes the ensemble.
