Amber was raised with music in her blood. She was always around it and with that said her life in music started. She started singing in church and family functions at the age of 3. As she got to be 8 years old her parents would take her to the bar to sing a few songs. It didn’t matter if it was on the stage or on the break; people would give Amber tips and was always asked her to sing another song. In high school she took music and continued with the music. Amber learned at a very young age how to set up and run the whole PA. At the age of 14 she was asked to run the sound system in San Francisco, Cali for some big name groups. They said she was one of the best sound people they ever had run their sound. Now she is just one of the lead singers for No Turning Back.
