Greetings!
I'm excited to digitally release my first holiday album called "Be the Peace". You can find it on iTunes, Apple Music, Amazon Music, Spotify and CDBaby. I never anticipated doing a holiday/Christmas album until the last few years when my mom has been asking for one. And this year, I decided, "Yes, I'm gonna do it!" As it would turn out, my mom was onto something -- I had SO MUCH fun recording these songs with my fabulous musician friends in the studio.
A BIG THANK YOU to all these folks for helping me make this creation: Steven Lee Tracy (production, percussion), Jay Trapp (bass), Ralph Gilmore (drums), Danny Krieger (electric guitar), Sabra Faulk (harmony vocals, guitar), Alex Flores (sax), Seth Murzyn (viola), Casey Hadland (vibraphone), Nick Coventry (violin, viola), Michael G. Ronstadt (cello), Joe Ferguson (ukulele, mandolin, guitar), and Celeste Goguen Tracy (harmony vocals).
I will have a CD release celebration and holiday concert at Desert Hills Lutheran Church in Green Valley, AZ. Click here for info & tickets: https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3738481. It’s going to be a super fun show with the crew of musicians who contributed their musical genius to this new album. We will play songs off the album, as well as a fun selection of other holiday songs that will feature everyone. AND for those who still love to listen to CDs, the physical CDs WILL be available at the concert - for those who attend, you will get the new album for a discounted special of $10!
Wishing you peace,
Amber

Holiday Concert and CD Release Celebration!
— —
Desert Hills Lutheran Church, 2150 S. Camino Del Sol, Green Valley, AZ 85622
Kick off the holiday season by joining Amber Norgaard and friends for a concert celebrating the release of Amber's new "Be the Peace" holiday album.
Amber's mom has been asking for years for a holiday album. Finally, in 2018, Amber decided that life is short, and 'tis the season to make that album. And because holidays are about gathering with the ones you love, she asked her friends to be part of this new creation. From a heartland rock rendition of "Rudolph" to "I'll Be Home for Christmas" sung in English and Spanish to her own original title track "Be the Peace" and more, this show (and new CD!) will uplift your holiday spirits.
She'll be joined by the musicians that contributed their musical genius to the new album - Ralph Gilmore (drums), Jay Trapp (bass), Danny Krieger (electric guitar), Sabra Faulk (vocals, guitar), Alex Flores (sax), Seth Murzyn (viola), and Joe Ferguson (vocals, mandolin, guitar).
Join us for this special holiday concert and CD release celebration!!
