Guitarist Brent J. Cooper of Huevos Rancheros fame, supposedly formed The Ramblin' Ambassadors on a dare. A booking agent needed a band, so he asked Cooper to come up with something. Cooper recruited bassist Scott Nickless, and began quickly writing songs. They had a few people fill in the drummer position, including David Alcock from Chixdiggit, who would eventually end up producing and recording Avanti. The Ramblin' Ambassadors settled down with drummer Tyler Pickering, played gigs and recorded nine songs. The result was the 2003 Avanti released on Vancouver's Mint Records.
