Erin is talented and stunningly beautiful! She played the role of the Bond Girl, Octopussy, at our 007 themed Gala. She showed up dressed to kill, took pictures with all of our guests and performed a few songs. Our guests were raving about her! Not only did she do a fabulous job at our event, she is upbeat and friendly, flexible, dependable, and was very communicative prior to the event. This was our first time using GigSalad and it did not disappoint! Thank you, Erin, for making our event extraordinary!
As a pianist in Los Angeles, I’ve worked professionally with Erin for well over a decade. We’ve played countless gigs together and she never ceases to amaze me. Her versatility as an opera singer, jazz singer, and basically any genre from musicals to pop/rock is unmatched! She is flexible, always positive and is extremely easy to work with. Depending on what is needed, she always knows exactly how to play the room. Of the many singers I’ve worked with over the years, Erin is always my first call!

Erin gave an amazing hour-plus performance of Broadway songs in our home for my wife's 50th birthday party. Erin was incredibly thoughtful in putting together selections based on my wife's specific tastes in musicals. My wife was so touched by how personalized the set list was. Erin was super communicative and collaborative in the days leading up to the event, and even accommodated our last minute slight change to the time of the performance. She wove the songs together with storytelling, engaging with our crowd, which consisted of a mix of Broadway fans, some guests who were less familiar with the genre, and kids -- everyone could appreciate her beautiful and impressive voice. It's very rare to be treated with performance like this in such an intimate setting. Our guests couldn't stop talking about how much they loved the experience and how unique and special it was. And my wife, who is a singer herself, was especially moved at hearing the music she loves so much performed for her right in her living room. Thank you, Erin, for being the highlight of our party and making my wife's milestone day so unforgettable!

Kudos to Erin for her willingness to take our event on given the resistance to talking "out loud" about Adults who suffer from Serious Mental Illness and their families.
Not only did she take us on, she both facilitated our event And she made it fun.
I held up the review until we could have at least a few photos to show.
We are grateful for her presence, her smile, her skills and most of all her enthusiasm aka her "light".

Think Linda Ronstadt when you think of Erin, she can sing anything, any style. She also is a songwriter and helped me write some songs for a project. Erin had laser focus when we worked together.

What to Expect
I'm a high-energy, friendly performer who can match your needs.
Since I've sung everything from rock concerts to Broadway benefits to funerals to weddings to children's parties to church services... and on and on the list goes!... and as an actor, I love to create an experience appropriate to what you're looking for.
Therefore, if you want an old-time blues singer for you Gatsby-themed New Year's Eve Party? I got you!
You need someone to sing "Memory" from "Cats", the opera aria "O Mio Babbino Caro" by Puccini and "Bridge Over Troubled Water" at a funeral? I can do so, slipping in and out as needed to honor the sacredness of mourning.
If you want someone to come perform Disney Princess songs for a birthday party, whether the kid is turning 5 or 50, I can do that, too!
I can emcee your event, I can throw in a little standup (clean or blue), I can perform with tracks or accompany myself or hire a combo to come with me.
I have a huge repertoire list. If you have special requests, I am happy to accommodate this. Please bear in mind that a few songs probably need a bit of lead time. For example, I once learned an original song for a wedding, but I was given a month lead time.
Therefore, my price quote will depend on the following variables:
-when is the gig
-what instrumentation is required
-what gear do I need to bring (sound system etc)
-how much lead time do I have for any special requests, music-wise
-do you require special clothing or costumes, hair or makeup
-travel time
-rehearsal requests
-length of the gig itself
I like to communicate clearly and have no problem with many questions! I want your event to be a huge success.
