Erin Sedalia

I first met Erin at a karaoke fundraising event at The Mirror Project.  When you think of karaoke you typically think of songs that everyone knows and loves to sing along to even if they aren’t so good at singing them. (LOL) On this night of Karaoke that wouldn’t be the case, I was introduced to a young lady that didn’t just sing she saaaaaannnng! I am a lover of music that dates back to listening to all of the greats like Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Gap Band, etc at my grandmothers family parties where they used to have the children dance.  When I hear someone who I feel is talented I always ask “Do you have an album out?” or “When is the album coming out?” I posed the same question to Erin after hearing her bring the house down.  Fast forward to February 20th 2015 and there it was the Album release for Subtle Rebellion. It was a chilly night in the Windy City but that did not stop supporters from coming out to get their first listen to Erin’s hotly anticipated album.  There was excitement in the air the ambience was perfect. Refuge is a nice chill spot located at 416 South Clark the perfect venue to present the album. We didn’t just get to hear the album we were walked through on a tour and what a beautiful tour it was. The album does not disappoint. Erin’s voice is rich and vibrant. Subtle Rebellion tells a story that many of us have lived.  All of the songs were written by Erin and she also served as one of its Executive Producers. Erin is a gem, she is talented and humble. It’s very rare that you find someone humble in the entertainment industry.  My favorites on the album  are Intimate Sobriety and Blue Eyes.   Make sure you go out and cop the album and let us and Erin know what your favorites are. You can find Erin on all social media @Erinsedalia.  Make sure that you follow us on Twitter and IG @mropenyonated.
