The latest...
June 18, 2026
The heat of the desert is here. I am grateful for the monsoons rolling in, AND to the fire crews who work around the clock quelling lightening-ignited fires, often in treacherous mountain terrain.
This season reminds me of the video shoot I did years ago at Equine Voices Rescue & Sanctuary for “Raise Me Up”, the song I wrote for them and filmmaker Marcus De Leon. We had literally one take in the area with the horses before a monsoon unexpectedly came upon us. Check out the end of the video to see the magnificent lightening bolt caught on film between me and the horse (yes, it's REAL).
My grandpa was a horse trainer, so maybe singing to horses is one of my genetic callings ;-). My dad has a passion for music. I thank him everyday for my musical calling. Happy Father's Day to the all the father figures out there.
Much love and light,
Amber
PS - Here's a fun video I put together of my rockstar Dad who not only inspired the music, but taught me how to drive tractors from a wee-bitty age.

Recording released on November 29, 2024 of Amber's song "Live This Dream" (streaming links here: https://ambernorgaard.com/live-this-dream ).

This has been a fan favorite through the years and Amber wanted to capture this latest rendition featuring her vocals and guitar with musicians Joe Ferguson (guitar), Stuart Oliver (mandolin, harmony vocals), Seth Murzyn (violin), Jay Trapp (fretless bass), Doug Floyd (electric guitar) and Casey Hadland (drums). Recorded and engineered by Steven Lee Tracy at Saint Cecilia Studios (Tucson, AZ) and mastered by Adam Boose at Cauliflower Audio.
"This song has been with me through the decades. Even when the world seems to fall apart around us, the one thing that remains and helps us get through is love. There is no end to its reverberation in our lives and the world." - Amber
