Erika Lundahl

Originally from the Willamette Valley of Oregon on Kalapuya land, Erika began performing in upstate New York in 2012. She returned to the tall trees and rugged wilderness of the Pacific Northwest in late 2013. She is a multidisciplinary musician and community organizer committed to low-carbon touring in her electric vehicle. Based on Coast Salish land in Seattle, Erika’s folk medicine roots in personal and collective histories of resilience, dancing between shadow and light to seek futures of abundance, possibility and healing.
Her newest album “Messy, Blessed Infinity” is an exuberant love letter to the world, wrapped in notes that bend from energized folk rock to hushed spoken word poetry. Refracting like light through glass, the album celebrates Pacific Northwest resistance movements like the Fairy Creek Blockade and efforts to breach the Snake River dams, and then heads inward to embrace the soft animal body within, exploring the self with songs of grief, reckonings with intimacy, heartbreak, and self care.
Record Crates United reviewed Erika’s 2020 album "Daughter, You're a Storyteller," saying: "..a stellar collection of deeply personal ballads and tributes to the heart. With songs that are inspired by the unlocking of the stories within our genetics, and seeking to explore our pasts to better understand our present adult minds and bodies."
