AMBER RUBARTH has a playful simplicity and insightfulness to her musings on life that has connected with people around the world. She has performed in villages across South Africa and small clubs in Japan, at Carnegie Hall, and backed up by a full chamber orchestra, as well as hundreds of clubs and theaters throughout Europe and the US. "She has developed a unique gift of knocking down walls with songs so strong they sound like classics from another era." -Acoustic Guitar Magazine. The word has spread organically around her independently released albums, attracting glowing features from The Huffington Post, NPR, and BBC Radio. She has been hand-picked to open tours for songwriting legends Emmylou Harris, Kenny Loggins, Richie Havens, Marc Cohn, Loudon Wainwright III and Dr. Ralph Stanley and was awarded Grand Prize in NPR's Mountain Stage New Song Contest. A live recording of Rubarth from Memphis' legendary Sun Studio is currently airing on PBS.
In addition to her solo music, Amber recently made her acting debut co-starring alongside folk troubadour Joe Purdy in the new feature film American Folk, which won Best of at the Cleveland International Film Festival and will release in January 2018. She has also scored and composed for films including the highly acclaimed Sundance Film Festival winner Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work (with Paul Brill) and the award-winning documentary Desert Runners. She also is the founder of two collaboration projects, Brooklyn indie band "The Paper Raincoat," an iTunes Indie Spotlight featured in commercials for Google and Aquafina, and the UK-based harmony folk trio "Applewood Road," whose debut album was named The Telegraph's Best Albums of 2016.
Her newest album, "Wildflowers in the Graveyard" will be released worldwide September 29, 2017. To listen to Amber, click here.
