Mark Ambor

Singer and songwriter Mark Ambor's ebullient relationship songs tend to favor uplifting, reassuring messages. After beginning to share his music in the late 2010s, finding support on social media, and releasing the singles collection Hello World in 2022, he made his Billboard Hot 100 debut with the bouncy, foot-stomping "Belong Together" in 2024.

A native of Pleasantville, New York, Mark Ambor first started releasing his music in the late 2010s, with the early EP Colorful appearing in 2019. Taking an affectionate stance in his writing from the beginning, his song "It's Us Again" appeared in late 2020 before he kicked off a string of singles including 2021's "Company" and the TikTok breakout "The Long Way" that were collected on the mini-album Hello World in September 2022.

Ambor launched a new series of singles with July 2023's "Curls in the Wind," but it was February 2024's lively "Belong Together" that brought him to a new level popularity when it went viral, collecting hundreds of millions of listens across online platforms. The song cracked the Hot 100 in the U.S. and Canada, placing in the 80s in both countries. ~ Marcy Donelson
