She credits her unique vintage sound to her childhood growing up in New Orleans\u2019 9th Ward, where her parents introduced her to Roberta Flack, Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder, Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughan, and Whitney Houston. This holiday season, Erica infuses a Christmas favorite with her soulful, vintage sound.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve always wanted to record a Christmas tune and I figured it was about time. This song, written by James Chadwick in 1862, takes me back to when I was in my high school chorus. We would go to hotels, nursing homes, and churches to perform Christmas carols and this one was always my favorite to sing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Erica decided to move forward with her idea: \u201cI slept on it for a few days to let the arrangement come to me. This usually happens in my sleep.\u201c She enlisted local guitarists Chris Adkins and Joy Clark for the project, sending them an a cappella recording to lay the foundation for her vision. Erica brought in Grammy-winning engineer, David Farrell, to track the session at 636 Studios in New Orleans. \u201cThey added their magic and together we created a wonderful expression of this traditional Christmas song \u2013 they truly helped to bring what was inside my head to fruition. I hope this version brings even more joy to your Holiday Season!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Street Date: 12\/14\/2018<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Erica Falls Brings A Little More Joy To The Holiday Season Louisiana Red Hot Records is pleased to announce the release of Erica Falls\u2019 soulful acoustic rendition of \u201cAngels We Have Heard On High.\u201d Soul singer and songwriter Erica Falls believes music is a blessing.
