What happens when a Sydney accountant stumbles upon country music by chance and follows an unexpected path to stardom? Six-time Golden Guitar winner Amber Lawrence reveals all in this charming conversation about musical journeys and finding your passion later in life.
Amber's story begins with a surprising revelation – she didn't pick up a guitar until age 22 and had no childhood dreams of musical fame. A chance purchase of a LeAnn Rimes CD sparked her interest in country music, leading to a fateful trip to Tamworth in 2004 where she placed second in a talent competition. Fast forward twenty years, and she's one of Australia's most celebrated country artists, recently inducted into the prestigious Galaxy of Stars alongside legends like Kasey Chambers and Lee Kernaghan.
The conversation delves into her 2022 ARIA #1 country album "Living for the Highlights," which captured the emotional rollercoaster of the pandemic years while maintaining Amber's characteristically positive outlook. She shares the story behind her latest single "Comeback Queens," a joyful anthem celebrating those nights out with longtime friends where everyone recaptures their carefree youth – "spinning around with Kylie Minogue and Shania Twain on the dance floor having a good time."
Amber gives us a glimpse of her busy schedule, balancing an extensive tour, European travel, and preparation for hosting the iconic Deni Ute Muster festival in October. She also discusses her upcoming album (now scheduled for January release), her pioneering children's country music albums, and why country music's authentic storytelling continues to win over new fans who "can now admit they like country music."
Join us for this heartwarming conversation that proves it's never too late to find your true calling. Whether you're a longtime country music fan or just beginning to appreciate the genre, Amber's journey from corporate office to country stages will inspire you to follow your unexpected passions.
