Q&A: Amberay

Eve Davies


Rising pop sensation, singer, songwriter, and composer, Amberay, recently released her new track ‘Summer Breeze’ accompanied by a beachbound music video. 

In just three weeks, the single has received over 157,000 views on YouTube. ‘Summer Breeze’ is Amberay’s 6th single since 2016. Her previous songs include ‘I Say Stop’, ‘Scratch’, ‘Woman Like A Fantasy’, ‘Bring On The Light’, and ‘Magic’.  

At 19 years old, Amberay sings beyond her years about topics that most teens are still trying to understand – true love being at the forefront. 

Establishing herself as a wildly diverse artist, Amberay’s new single moves away from the electro-pop style of her previous work and into a more mature, emotional, and ethereal realm. The way she fills out the track with elegant backing vocals and classic instrumentation is truly remarkable.

“I’ve always been attracted to art in every form”

In her music video, the artist is involved in an intimate romance set against a pastel coastal backdrop and sapphire sea, showing her at one with nature. She also showcases her musical talent as she plays the piano alongside an energetic cast. It is a captivating watch!

Reflecting on the track, Amberay commented: “Summer Breeze’ is about love; it’s about the search of the one and those connections we have with strangers in between and what they mean. Love can be short, or it can be forever and even though it’s not always forever, it was beautiful for what it was,” showing so much talent and maturity caught up in such a young soul.

“Interacting with people inspires me, looking at the world inspires me”

You might be wondering what inspired Amberay to enter the music industry, here’s what she said: “I always felt so attracted to the world and its immense beauty, I’ve always been attracted to art in every form and music is the ultimate form of art and art has always been my way of expression.”

Bursting onto the scene at 14 years old, Amberay undeniably has creativity and music etched in her blood. When asked about what sparks her creativity, Amberay said: “Interacting with people inspires me, looking at the world inspires me, meeting someone I like inspires me, being who I am inspires me. All those things spark my creativity.”

In an industry that comes with immense social pressure, Amberay’s forms of relaxation include swimming in the sea, making music, and spending time with the people she loves. A social butterfly and spiritual nature-lover, Amberay is the definition of tranquillity and deep connection, and this shines through her new single and accompanying video.

“Believe in yourself and do what you love”

Amberay said her biggest role models are her mother and father and that she would love to collaborate with Sam Smith, Harry Styles, or The Weeknd – dream big!

The best advice she has been given is: “You are rare, you are unique and don’t let anyone ever tell you the contrary. Follow your own path.”

A message to her fans: “Believe in yourself and do what you love.”

Amberay’s love for and appreciation of her industry is unyielding. She explained: “I think the industry is changing every day, and what’s most important is that talented people get discovered and I feel that those chances are increasing every day.”

Her passion is transparent in her work. Amberay clearly puts a lot of thought into her lyrics and every wave of sound she produces. She explained: “I would describe my music style as heart felt, emotional, romantic, and true. It’s about love and things you encounter in life.”

Amberay feels deeply, sings beautifully, and is on track to great success.
