Details:
Wanna know why you should get this record?

-Get this record for the secret key in the liner notes that gets you to the 11th floor. There are lots of goodies hidden there.

-Get this record for my grandmother's singing on the first track, for eddy hobizal's renowned pianastics, for the ethereal country creepiness of the pedal steel guitar.

-Get this record to hear me make up words and dress down lovers.

-Get this record if you are a fan of Norah Jones, The Sundays, or Kathleen Edwards.

-Get this record because it will make you feel good, or at least a little sassy.

-Get this record because it is a 100 independent venture and i need your support.

-Get this record because I left lots of room for you to sing along.

cheers!

"I used to perform the entire Flashdance soundtrack," Erin recalls of her formative years in Annapolis, Maryland, playing to an imaginary crowd in her living room. "I sang into my dad's dry-erase pens."

Eventually transplanted to Austin, Texas in 1996 with a proper microphone, Erin has been featured as the voice of Apple Computer, her music has been used in Red Bull Energy Drink promotions, and she works with independent music producers nationwide.

Most recently, Erin was selected from a catalogue of nearly 400 artists to become the first Artist-in-Residence at Rumblefish, a music branding and agency in Portland, Oregon. There she recorded her debut full-length album with members of Rye Hollow, Derby, and Five O'Clock People.

Making music likened to Bebel Gilberto, Tom Waits, and The Sundays, Erin was one of just ten musicians selected by Red Bull to attend a production workshop in Dallas in 2005. From there, her first self-produced track became the Top Download at Austin Online Music. In 2006, Erin relocated to Illinois for a year to prepare her demos and expand her fan base. Now back in Austin, Erin looks forward to sharing the new record with you.
