At the age of 33, Erin McKeown has already had the career most people dream of, and she only continues to mature as a writer, multi-instrumentalist, and performer with no sign of stopping any time soon. Her first album, "Distillation", arrived a decade ago to high praise and signaled the debut of singular talent. It has been followed by 7 full length albums, 3 EPs, an upcoming concert film, and a groundbreaking internet concert series. From elegant pop to balls-out rock, sweet electronics to witty swing, Erin has packed a ton of music into a substantial career.
For most of the last decade, Erin has spent an average of 200 nights a year onstage, building a loyal fan base across the United States and Europe. She has appeared on Later with Jools Holland, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, NPR, BBC, and has had numerous film, television, and commercial placements. She's even written a song via text message with her friend Rachel Maddow. In the last year, she's taken more time off the road to teach, write poems and op-eds, and launch a successful side-career as a political activist, lobbying regularly on Capitol Hill about issues concerning musicians and technology. Erin's latest studio album is "F*ck That!", an album of irreverent and inappropriate anti-holiday songs, with accompanying hymnal. McKeown is currently a fellow at Harvard's Berkman Center, working on a book of poems, looking for ways to incorporate her love of sports into her career, and finishing her next studio project- due in early 2012. She is also available for co-writing and album production work. click here to download the rest of the Erin's bio click here to download the rest of the "Hundreds of Lions" bio click here to read Erin's blog click here to download HI-RES press photos |
