Bio
Sign up for my mailing list here: .. ....Email............ .. ...... .. BIOGRAPHY.. .. Standing on the banks of the River Ganges watching the sun steep on the Indian horizon, Erin Muir found herself at a spiritual crossroads. Having spent her childhood studying classical voice and piano in rural Sauk Rapids, MN, moving to St. Olaf College School of Music, touring the U.S. in a 1973 Vogue RV with a rock band, running off with a Parisian cabaret, to making the leap to Los Angeles, then finding herself in Rishikesh, she sensed it was time to return home. .. .. The moment Erin stepped off the tarmac back at LAX, she made an a-line for her guitar and submerged herself in the Mississippi blues. With the help of Bernie Larsen (Melissa Etheridge, Rickie Lee Jones, David Lindley), she arrived on the West side of the bank- soaked- with ten soul searching, torch burning, intimate songs that sealed her solo release- Poet’s Lovely Daughter. .. .. Touching on her experience in India, Poet’s Lovely Daughter opens with ‘Supernatural’. Staccato strings melt into near-Eastern percussion while Erin’s contralto burns with influential wisps of Poe and Leonard Cohen. ‘K15’ is a sultry tale of love-gone-wrong; ‘Heart Given’ is largely autobiographical; the title track combines the stories of 16th Century prophetess Mother Shipton, Joan of Arc as well as various women who- either literally or figuratively- were burned at the stake. ‘Shadows and Silt’ invokes a floating Spanish Harlem; ‘Too Much’ an ambient mood; a reggae lilt softly rocks ‘Faith’; while childlike sing-song introduces ‘Black Butterfly’. ‘Lost Among The Lilies’ spins a sordid fairy tale pitting a lower-register Fiona Apple against a Nick Cave acoustic feel. The album closes with ‘City in the Sky’- a distant glimpse into the near future. .. .. Equal parts hopeless romantic, femme fatale as well as tragedienne, Poet’s Lovely Daughter marks Erin Muir’s artistic journey and echoes Sir Alfred Tennyson’s ever haunting words: “’Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.” .. .. .. .. ........ ...... ...... ...... ........ .. ...... ...... ...... ...... .. ...... .. .... ........ .. .. ....

Standing on the banks of the River Ganges watching the sun steep on the Indian horizon, Erin Muir found herself at a spiritual crossroads.

The moment Erin stepped off the tarmac back at LAX, she made an a-line for her guitar and submerged herself in the Mississippi blues. With the help of Bernie Larsen (Melissa Etheridge, Rickie Lee Jones, David Lindley), she arrived on the West side of the bank- soaked- with ten soul searching, torch burning, intimate songs that sealed her solo release- Poet’s Lovely Daughter.
Touching on her experience in India, Poet’s Lovely Daughter opens with ‘Supernatural’. Staccato strings melt into near-Eastern percussion while Erin’s contralto burns with influential wisps of Poe and Leonard Cohen. ‘K15’ is a sultry tale of love-gone-wrong; ‘Heart Given’ is largely autobiographical; the title track combines the stories of 16th Century prophetess Mother Shipton, Joan of Arc as well as various women who- either literally or figuratively- were burned at the stake. ‘Shadows and Silt’ invokes a floating Spanish Harlem; ‘Too Much’ an ambient mood; a reggae lilt softly rocks ‘Faith’; while childlike sing-song introduces ‘Black Butterfly’. ‘Lost Among The Lilies’ spins a sordid fairy tale pitting a lower-register Fiona Apple against a Nick Cave acoustic feel.

Equal parts hopeless romantic, femme fatale as well as tragedienne, Poet’s Lovely Daughter marks Erin Muir’s artistic journey and echoes Sir Alfred Tennyson’s ever haunting words: “’Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.”
