Raging Geisha, based out of South Beach, Florida has been rockin' in Miami for years. Raging Geisha's sound is a fusion of rock, pop and hip-hop. Their fans come from many different music scenes and are as diverse as the band itself. Raging Geisha's songs sound like a mash-up of Beyonce/Rihanna and the power of Linkin Park/Fall Out Boy's high-powered energy packed into urban pop songs with a kick-ass live show.
Raging Geisha has performed/showcased in venues such as Snitch and Mo Pritkins in New York City, Grapestreet in Philadelphia and the 10 Mile Club in Atlanta. In Florida, they've opened for Smashmouth in Jacksonville, played the Florida Music Festival twice in Orlando and headlined at Studio A as well as the Culture Room in their hometown of Miami/Ft. Lauderdale. Their internet fans come from over the world, from all music scenes.
Raging Geisha took off when singer/songwriter/pianist Erica-Sommer teamed up with producer/writer/musician David Siegel. David's name appears as writer/producer on over 30 million records worldwide for artists such as Beyonce, Christina Aguilera, Jessica Simpson, Celin Dion, Pink, Enrique Eglesias, Marc Anthony, Ricky Martin, Thelia, Clay Aiken and Maya. Erica and David formed Raging Geisha in 2002 with the idea to introduce the music world to the first rock band led by an African-American woman.
Erica-Sommer, a sensuous, sexy, beautiful woman, is endowed with an enormous voice and energetic stage presence. Raging Geisha is set to be the first band to crossover into the clubs, mainstream/urban radio venues as well as stadiums and arenas. Their international look along with their hot South Beach, Miami energy, and unique sound is what sets Raging Geisha apart from the ordinary.
