OUT OF TOUCH - OUT NOW
Written after the breakdown of a close friendship, Out of Touch explores the emotional complexity of female friendships — and the quiet reckoning that happens within yourself when things fall apart and you’re left figuring out what on earth happened.
What makes this release even more personal is that the people who inspired the song became part of the music video. It turned into a full-circle moment — raw, vulnerable, and unexpectedly healing. Each scene reflects a different part of Amber from that chapter: the part that blamed herself, the part that missed them, and the part that still needed answers.
With its dreamy edge, bittersweet lyrics, and an undercurrent of pop energy, Out of Touch holds space for the over-feelers, the over-thinkers, and anyone who's ever questioned their own intensity after being left behind.
