I got my background from Backgrounds Archive!
Erin Barra is the definition of a true artist. She infuses both content and consciousness in her songwriting while passionately commanding the stage by grabbing the audiences’ full attention with the utterance of her first lush note.
Her sound draws on a diverse range of cultural groupings creating a distinctive mix: add one part R&B, two parts Pop with splashes of Funk. The connection she shares with her band is something rarely seen and so unique; it pulls you directly into the experience.
Erin channels the modern day wattage of Alicia Keys with the substance of Roberta Flack, inspired largely from a classic range of legendary performers such as Stevie Wonder, Bonnie Raiit, Bob Marley, Jill Scott and Hall and Oates.
Erin had had the opportunity to write and work with industry notables and Grammy award winning artists, engineers and producers such as Katty Mattea, John Oates, George Massenburg, Elliot Scheiner and Howie Weinberg.
She is a tried and true performer having graced the stages of historic New York venues such as SOB’s, Solomon’s Porch, The Bitter End, and The Cutting Room.
Whether she is playing solo on her Wurlitzer or backed by her band, Erin creates an intimate feel with her audience which makes them a part of her performance.
Stay tuned for Erin Barra coming to a stage in a city near you.
