Erika May Music, Silver City, NM
"Jazzy Hippie Chick", erika may sets up a bass line with her cello creating loops and beats over which she fingerpicks the guitar, sings and improvises with her flute on original songs and a variety of cover tunes and jazz standards.
erika may has an eclectic mix of edgy and deep music flecked with jazz, folk and various world influences. Her songs are described as having soaring, lyrical melodies in emotionally driven performance which creates a dynamic experience.
Whether it's singing jazz standards, Spanish songs, & originals, improvising on her flute, accompanying herself on guitar and/or cello as a solo act, or swinging with jazz combos as both a leader and a sideman, or performing on flute in classical duets with piano or guitar, or being “in the band” with Americana/pop groups as a singer and flutist, erika may brings her personal flair, professionalism, and a loving joy of the music to each performance.
