"Amber Norgaard is a songwriter at home on both piano and guitar. She's a lyricist that draws the audience in by what she has to say and then keeps them hooked by her charisma and charm. Aside from her musicianship, she is tonic for the soul. What you see is what you get: Authentic." ~ Terri Hendrix (www.terrihendrix.com) Amber wrote "Raise Me Up" after hearing the stories of resilience and healing of horses at an equine rescue and sanctuary. Her words describe the essence of the horse: "They brought the world closer together, Allowed us to fly before we had wings, Inspired us to rise above and look beyond. They teach us no distance is too far And no heart too separate To unite, emerge from the ruins and resurrect in peace. In their presence, we sense our own human potential For true strength is in serving And true power happens when we raise each other up." The song features her long-time bandmates Doug "Hurricane" Floyd on electric guitar and Jay Trapp on bass, as well as Junior Medina on drums and Michael G. Ronstadt on cello.
