Ōtautahi-based artist Amber Carly Williams is making her mark in Aotearoa’s Alternative/Indie-Pop scene, playing shows around the country and sharing a vulnerability in her songwriting that entices listeners. With a powerful voice rich in soulful grit and the guitar skills to match, Amber delivers a live performance that leaves a mark. In 2023, Amber released her debut EP 21 Roses, produced by Terence O’Connor (Teeks, Julius Black), a poignant collection exploring themes of grief and upbringing with powerful relatability. Her sound combines the emotional depth of Lizzy McAlpine, the atmospheric pull of Holly Humberstone, while also adding a grungy Radiohead edge. Amber brings undeniable energy and authenticity to the stage with her band.
