About Amber Harper Young:

Amber is from Ontario and now lives in Vancouver. Her fearless crowd work, quick wit and natural charm, has made her an incredibly sough after host and headlining comedian both nationally and internationally.  

Amber tours her absurd colorful style of self-deprecating (TMI) material, closing independent shows from coast to coast. Her hilarious and wildly audacious jokes are inspired by her unique and somewhat feral upbringing.  She also shares her highly relatable stories on the trials and tribulations of navigating adulthood.  But really... her sets can go anywhere! Amber's talent for experimental comedy, combined with her sharp improvisational skills, often have her mixing with the audiences before her, and creating jokes right on the spot, making every performance an original.   

Her performing highlights include: Just for Laughs NorthWest (Vancouver), The Comics Lounge (Melbourne, Australia), The Del Close Marathon (NYC), and more recently, YYC Comedy Festival (Calgary), Smash Comedy Fest (Vancouver) and the Tall Tree Festival (Port Renfrew).

Amber has also had the honor of opening for Canadian comedy legend Mike MacDonald (Just for Laughs) on multiple occasions, as well as Darrin Rose (Match Game, CBC's Mr. D), Brent Weinbach (Comedy Central, Conan) and David Huntsberger (Last Comic Standing, Comedy Central).
