Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon
Amber Rubarth is an American singer and songwriter who has independently released six albums. Rubarth performs regularly throughout Europe, the USA and Japan and has been the support act for many artists on tour including Emmylou Harris, Kenny Loggins, Marc Cohn, Richie Havens, Dr. Ralph Stanley, and a special Carnegie Hall performance with Jason Mraz. Winner of the NPR Mountain Stage New Song Contest, her sixth studio album titled "A Common Case of Disappearing" was produced by Grammy Award winning producer Jacquire King (Tom Waits, Norah Jones) and debuted at #13 on the iTunes Singer-Songwriter charts. It features duets with Jason Reeves, and Jason Mraz. In 2012, audiophile label Chesky Records released a live HD Binaural recording featuring Rubarth with solo cellist Dave Eggar to great acclaim. Her 7th album, currently untitled, is slated for a 2014 independent release. Rubarth's performance for TED Talks' TEDxKC chapter was chosen as a TEDx Global Music Project feature.

In addition to her solo work, Rubarth co-founded the Brooklyn based indie band The Paper Raincoat with long-time collaborator Alex Wong and drummer Kevin Rice.

Rubarth has also written songs for films, including collaborations with Paul Brill for Sundance Film Festival winner Joan Rivers: A Piece of Work and the end credit song for award-winning documentary Desert Runners.

Rubarth was born in California. At age 17, she graduated high school and moved to Carson City, Nevada to apprentice at a chainsaw sculpting shop. After three years, she quit the apprenticeship to pursue music. She taught herself to play guitar and began performing at local open mic nights and coffee shops. Phil Ramone in The Huffington Post describes her style as "part of the new old-soul generation." Rubarth soon began touring throughout the U.S., Europe, and Japan. She tours with a 1956 Gibson ES-125 hollow body electric guitar, and also plays piano. In her side project The Paper Raincoat she sings and plays keyboard, guitar, glockenspiel, and occasionally drums.
