As the saying goes, a rose that grows from concrete surpasses expectations because one would never anticipate such a beautiful flower to blossom from such a challenged and often uneven foundation. The same is true for the prodigious and ethereal, singer-songwriter-musician, Erika Rose. Born in New York to a Jewish mother and a Jamaican father, the petite, biracial beauty with a song in her heart, did not allow anyone to deter her from pursuing her dreams of performing and making them a reality.

Growing up in Manhattan and Queens for her first ten years of life before moving to Florida, the precocious wunderkind graduated from high school at the age of sixteen, and began to express herself thru song, polished her piano skills and picked up guitar. At the age of seventeen she co-penned the yet to be released “A Woman’s Worth” with her childhood friend Alicia Keys, from Alicia’s multi-platinum debut album.

After completing her degree in three years at the University of Miami’s School of Music, having received a full scholarship, she relocated back to New York. Filling an existing void in Alicia’s camp at the onset of both of their careers, moving from assistant to road manager, Erika ascended to tour director and project manager and transitioned out of her role after four years on the road. At the delicate age of twenty-three, Erika Rose stepped out on faith to fully fulfill her dreams and the result has culminated in an eclectic and melodic tale of passion, love and truth from within entitled Rosegarden. “Everything I write about comes from what I feel and how I live.”

In November 2005 Erika met producer, musician and executive Om’Mas Keith of the group SA-RA through a mutual friend and the two began collaborating on Rosegarden. With its pulsating drums, catchy hooks and strumming guitar riffs, this bohemian siren’s angelic voice and impeccable harmonic prowess takes the listener on a journey of introspection, sensuality, self-love and service.

Erika together with Om’Mas formed Infinity Le Monde, the company they have established to represent not only their everlasting connection to the music they are creating but also to the infinite possibilities of their connection to the universe. Via their own projects and the artists they plan to produce and release, they are committed to excellence in music and fostering an environment where each artist can feel free to make creative decisions based on instinct, not industry standard.

Erika simply wants every ear that hears Rosegarden to be “touched and moved because that’s the beauty of art, it’s a personal experience. Whether it’s the melody or the lyrics, the music or the rhythm, I just want people to be taken to some faraway euphoric land. Just get high off of the music and go to a really deep place that brings them joy.”

"Erika’s Rosegarden is fresh, original and like nothing else out there right now."
~ Lenny Kravitz

“When Erika sat me down in the studio to listen to her music, I was ill prepared for the sonic landscape I experienced. The depth of this record is breathtaking and her voice never fails to keep your attention.”
~ Steve Lillywhite, 2006 Grammy Award Winner for Producer of the Year of U2’s, How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb


“Erika Rose is a rare jewel just waiting to be discovered! Her style of music is a mixture of life, love, darkness, and sensuality in the most refreshingly unexpected package, and it leaves you wanting more! I’m lovin it!”
~ Alicia Keys

“I think that the world is missing someone as pure and fresh as Erika Rose. What I hear in her music reminds me of how creative and fruitful we can be with art.”
~ Common

They don't follow the fashion
Latest trend, no reaction
State of the world's affairs
Seem indifferent, but really care
Self-reliance what its all about
Don't need it, you do without
In the balance of the universe
Doesn't matter could be worse
....."Exceptionally Cool".....

Help End Violence Against Women



Nov 1 2009 6:15 PM


As we stand with the most
precious part of our lives...



I cannot recall the moment in time
it began, For at that moment I knew
happiness, a happiness I had never
known before, for just the thought
gave me joy beyond belief...

It is a love of passion and desire
as love which does not end, love does
not wither and love is not, in fact a contract
and can only be considered as a gift...
 
I realize I now know the true meaning
of love as long as this life endures
and beyond, for my dreams, my realities,
the feeling of ecstasy it brought to me...

Love it is a never-ending need,
one that will last a lifetime...
and will never let you forget how
true love has made you feel...

May Faith, Hope & Love 
Always Be Your Treasures....
~John~
