Amber Shalene

Amber Shalene has never been conventional, and her journey to the Nashville country music scene has not been either. She began humbly, performing in her Grandfather’s church, and went on to win a national songwriting contest at 15. Amber has gone on to inspire young hearts in African orphanages and to sing on the stages of Israel, Europe and South Africa. Always showing her ambition and passion for music, Amber has seen the difference that music can make in lives all over the world.

A self-proclaimed Southern Gypsy, Amber offers a vocal combination of Wynonna Judd, Bonnie Rait and Tracy Chapman. She writes honest, emotional and thought provoking lyrics. Her inspirations range from CCR, and Billy Joel to Ray Charles and her mother, Violet, who taught her the value of song and of purpose.
