Despite continued blockages over the past year, it has been a productive time for Amber since releasing her single last year.
She landed her feature debut in New Music Friday UK at the end of January 2021, with its release Insecurity Lies. She has also featured extensively over the past 12 months on BBC Introducing Merseyside with both indie releases and featurings.
Her latest song Confident is the first single from her debut album which will be released in the next few months – a mix of pop, funk and soul with Ariana Grande-style lyrics and a beat that matches the energy of Tom Misch and Anderson. Paak.
Amber performed at her first sold-out show at Underbelly Hoxton, London on June 10, where she sang some of her old tracks as well as songs from her upcoming project. She looks forward to returning to perform her second London show at O2 Islington on Friday October 15, as well as continuing to create and collaborate with her ever-growing music community.
The singer and her team shot the video for Confident in four key locations; the Queen’s Insurance Buildings, Liverpool Parish Church Gardens, Liverpool Docks and the Baltic Triangle.
The latter was most important to Amber, as the city’s creative hub, and a true reflection of the vitality, community spirit and contagious energy of Project Confident.

“Confident” was created to be a lifeline against the collective sense of isolation and insecurity that arose among many young people during the pandemic.
Like many others, the recent situation has left Amber feeling estranged from many of her relatives and friends. On top of that, it had taken away from her the ability to perform due to the closure of all concert halls.
Through the writing process, she was able to reconstruct what was lost, allowing her to reclaim her artistic identity that had been stifled by a cycle of closings and cancellations. She is delighted to share the uplifting trust mantra with others, in the hope that it will lift their spirits as well.
The music video for “Confident” will be released on Friday July 9 and can be viewed on Amber Prothero’s YouTube channel, where Amber has posted a number of covers of songs, at https://www.youtube.com/c/AMBERPROTHÉRO
