Steeped in an already extensive career in show business, she is poised to bring a fresh, new flavor. Her debut album promises to be a celebration of her musical influences, as rich and diverse as the culture of her Louisiana hometown. "My music is versatile and characteristic of the down-home lifestyle I was nurtured in," says Erica Fox. "It's an introspective look at life as told by an urban poet”--poetic, spiritual, deep. This talented singer-songwriter-producer creates songs that are soulful, flavored with Southern blues and urban rhythms. I stay true to life experiences. I share my own hurdles I’ve had to conquer and tell stories that we’ve all been through." A native of Lafayette, LA, this accomplished songwriter and performer has worked with the likes of Toni Braxton, Shai, Jon B. and Tank.

Erica feels “it is a privilege and honor to help others through music and the arts”. She starred in the Broadway Show, The Buddy Holly Story at the Lawrence Welk Theater in San Diego, CA.
