ABOUT ERINI
Heard by over 1 million people during her tour with Cirque Du Soleil, Erini’s voice is characterized by ornaments from the Greek tradition and inspired by far-ranging influences such as jazz, pop and classical music. Growing up in a musical family on the island of Crete, Greece, Erini played the piano and cello and performed with her hometown’s string orchestra and choir. As a descendant of Asia Minor-Greek refugees, Erini’s mother introduced her to the Asia Minor-Greek musical tradition which ignited Erini’s passion for singing.
As a teenager Erini immersed herself into pop and rock which led her to England to study Contemporary Vocals at Bimm at age 18. Being cast as the only vocalist of the show “Kurios” by Cirque Du Soleil in 2014, Erini toured for 3 years, performing a total of 1074 shows. Going on to complete a Master at the Berklee College of Music paved new paths of experimentation for Erini as she redefined the constraints of genre and birthed a new sound combining Greek traditional music with contrasting genres such as, jazz, pop and classical music. Erini has had the opportunity to showcase her musical heritage at Carnegie Hall and she was an Official Selection Showcase artist at WOMEX 2023.
She has sung in Grammy-nominated albums and has collaborated with artists such as Danilo Perez, Terri Lyne Carrington, Nella, Jorge Glem and Daniel Hope. Erini is also a professor at the Berklee College of Music and presents workshops and lectures of Greek traditional music in universities including Harvard, Princeton, Tufts amongst others. In recognition of her efforts to preserve Asia-Minor Greek culture, Erini has been awarded the Greek America Foundation’s 40 under 40 Award and the Massachusetts Cultural Council’s Traditional Arts Fellowship. Erini's debut album is scheduled to be released in June 2024 with Ropeadope and Minos EMI (A Universal Music Group Company).
