The story comes, the story wants to be told. It flows in the direction most conducive for the mode and circumstance. The music will generally juxtapose the vernacular to test if you are paying attention. If not, enjoy the aural ether of noise and bounce. If you like language, the journey might shed a tear of reminiscence and joy for overcoming it in a jubilees facade. There are artists I dig, but if each song has it's own life, my stories aren't "influenced" by their stories. A round about way of differentiating the misinterpretations of this question. In the collective, they create "The Gospel According to Erica". Individually, each encompasses a musical maelstrom. The best and most frequent reaction to my (few recorded thus far in their true form) songs are, "I like it, but I can't place it in a genre?" (I'm paraphrasing), which is why I made up my own categories: The Happy Heartbreak, Disco-Noir. What do they mean? Will "real rekkinize real"? Your reel to my reel? Or at least empathize enough to get lost in a few minutes of my aural ether? I would be most flattered if you gave it a try...

Enough demonstrative digression. "Influences":

You're not dreaming... It's...

"But the only thing that worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible than a man in the depths of an ether binge..." -Hunter S. Thompson, "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas"

Wanna a WHOLE LOTTA LOVE? The closest you'll probably be to hearing me orgasm... on stage... MAYBE?:

So, yeah, I'm a part Native America, pop song singing, belty voiced, busty boobed, politically incorrect, too honest for my own damn good, 4 octave ranged song-writer who uses "in daily life but not necessarily in my song-writing" multi-syllable words, gnostic illustrator of pictures and illusions trying to entertain this cognitive dimension of our existence on Earth... Is that "novel" enough?

And lastly, "Never pass up a bathroom, never waste a hard-on, and never trust a fart."
