Ōtautahi-based singer-songwriter Amber Carly Williams, known for her rare and captivating voice, will be featured on the show this week. With an exciting new body of work, she is poised to ascend to the upper echelon of New Zealand's indie-pop scene.
At 22 years old, Amber's sound resonates with influences from Phoebe Bridgers, Lizzy McAlpine, and The Japanese House. Her music blends melancholic strings, distorted guitars, big live drums, and a gritty, soulful voice to create a unique sonic atmosphere.
In 2021, Amber secured a spot at New Zealand's biggest festival, Bay Dreams, and later appeared on TVNZ's 'Popstars', working with artists like Kimbra and Jeremy Redmore. With her debut EP arriving in November, Amber is set to play a headline release show and perform at major New Zealand festivals, including Rolling Meadows and the South Island Wine & Food Fest.
