Ambush, Shreveport's premiere party band was formed in the 1990's. Nearly 20 years later, Ambush is still going strong playing casinos, clubs, and private events in and around the Ark-La-Tex. Formed during the oldies revival movement of the '90's, Ambush's songlist not only includes hits from the 50's and 60's but also hits from the 70's, 80's and 90's as well. Whether it's rock, country, blues, soul or oldies, Ambush is sure to satisfy.



On drums, Kyle Coleman supplies the backbeat and makes up half of the rhythm section. Originally from Jena, Louisiana, Kyle has called the Ark-La-Tex home for more than 25 years. A professional musician for more than 25 years, Kyle has played with many groups including The Sales Department and Jeaux Phrydae. Personal quote:  "Man I'm tired of looking at ya'lls butts."
