Described as “poet, peace-warrior, healer” (Tucson Lifestyle) and “Tucson’s folk-rock goddess” (Natural Awakenings), Amber Norgaard is known for her passionate vocal/piano/guitar delivery, eloquent lyrics and graceful melodies that inspire hope. Growing up on an Iowa farm, Amber had a calling to be of service to the world. After graduating from Creighton University College of Nursing, she set off to do volunteer work in the Dominican Republic and Oregon. Eventually, she settled in southwestern Alaska working as a registered nurse. For six years, she lived 400 miles off the road system and was immersed within the indigenous population. It was here that she learned to use music as a source of connection to transcend language and cultural barriers. This discovery was what led her to pursue her passion—using music as healing art to foster compassion, spirituality and promote positive social change. She has released five full-length albums and multiple singles, toured nationally, opened for Judy Collins, Kenny Loggins, and Michael McDonald, received accolades for her songwriting, written songs for multiple non-profit organizations and film projects, and speaks at universities and organizations on "Music as a Healing Art and Instrument for Social Change".
