The same is true for the prodigious and ethereal, singer-songwriter-musician, Erika Rose. Born in New York to a Jewish mother and a Jamaican father, the petite, biracial beauty with a song in her heart, did not allow anyone to deter her from pursuing her dreams of performing and making them a reality. Growing up in Manhattan and Queens for her first ten years of life before moving to Florida, the precocious wunderkind graduated from high school at the age of sixteen, and began to express herself thru song, polished her piano skills and picked up guitar. At the age of seventeen she co-penned the yet to be released “A Woman’s Worth” with her childhood friend Alicia Keys, from Alicia’s multi-platinum debut album. After completing her degree in three years at the University of Miami’s School of Music, having received a full scholarship, she relocated back to New York. Filling an existing void in Alicia’s camp at the onset of both of their careers, moving from assistant to road manager, Erika ascended to tour director and project manager and transitioned out of her role after four years on the road. At the delicate age of twenty-three, Erika Rose stepped out on faith to fully fulfill her dreams and the result has culminated in an eclectic and melodic tale of passion, love and truth from within entitled Rosegarden. “Everything I write about comes from what I feel and how I live.” In November 2005 Erika met producer, musician and executive Om’Mas Keith of the group SA-RA through a mutual friend and the two began collaborating on Rosegarden. With its pulsating drums, catchy hooks and strumming guitar riffs, this bohemian siren’s angelic voice and impeccable harmonic prowess takes the listener on a journey of introspection, sensuality, self-love and service. Erika together with Om’Mas formed Infinity Le Monde, the company they have established to represent not only their everlasting connection to the music they are creating but also to the infinite possibilities of their connection to the universe. Via their own projects and the artists they plan to produce and release, they are committed to excellence in music and fostering an environment where each artist can feel free to make creative decisions based on instinct, not industry standard. Erika simply wants every ear that hears Rosegarden to be “touched and moved because that’s the beauty of art, it’s a personal experience. Whether it’s the melody or the lyrics, the music or the rhythm, I just want people to be taken to some faraway euphoric land. Just get high off of the music and go to a really deep place that brings them joy.” Alicia Keys says of her longtime friend, “Erika Rose is a rare jewel just waiting to be discovered! Her style of music is a mixture of life, love, darkness and sensuality in the most refreshingly unexpected package. It leaves you wanting more and I’m lovin it!” Record Label: Infinity Le Monde Type of Label: Indie |
