About this user

Growing up on an Iowa farm, Amber Norgaard had a calling to be of service to others and see the world. After graduating Creighton University School of Nursing, she set off to do volunteer work with Creighton's Institute for Latin American Concern (ILAC) in the Dominican Republic, and then joined the Jesuit Volunteer Corp for two years. During this time, she worked as a nurse in a migrant clinic in Oregon, and then proceeded north working as a community health nurse with a tribal health care delivery organization in the southwestern Alaskan bush region.

During the six years she worked with the indigenous population of Alaska, Amber discovered that music was a source of connection for people that could transcend language and cultural barriers. In her work with high-risk populations, she found that music could often relay messages, evoke emotions and foster healing on a very deep level.

In 2004, Amber left her Alaskan lifestyle to pursue a musical dream. Since then, the nurse-turned-musician has released three full-length albums and one acoustic EP. She was voted the 2007 Up & Coming Artist of the Year in the Tucson Area Music Awards (TAMMIES), has received several honors from international songwriting competitions and placed second out of nearly 100 bands at the California-based 2007 Winery Music Awards. TUCSON LIFESTYLE magazine comments that Amber "combines a nurturing spirit, with a keen sense of melody, mixed with trenchant social observations and a strong dash of on-the-mark humor," calling her "one part poet, one part social crusader." Indeed, she has an ability to connect with people of all ages and backgrounds, and her compassionate life experience and knack for the healing arts shine through in her music.
