Welcome to the site of EricaJames and thank you for visiting.

EricaJames music is all original and its genre classification, while debateable, is in a style all its own. Some refer to it as gypsy with jazz and/or celtic flavor. We will let you be the judge. Please take time to listen to their current recordings while you're here and also check out their schedule to see if they will be playing at a time and place near you. Thanks for your support and stopping by. Enjoy your visit!

BIOGRAPHY

EricaJames started as a father/daughter duo out of small town in Texas south of San Antonio. Erica, born in Lake Charles, LA, has been playing violin since the age of 10 learning from such artists as Bobby Flores, a 2002 Grammy Award winning musician and composer. Her dad James born and raised in San Antonio, TX, has been playing the guitar since the age of 14. (Don't ask his age). After Erica, at age 13, teamed with her dad, James and became known as EricaJames, the duo has had the opportunity to play with such greats as Michael Martin Murphy who has written and performed hits such as; Wildfire and What's Forever For, to opening for such groups as The Platters, who have earned 25 number 1 hits since the 50's. Erica's undying passion to master the violin and to play outside the traditional realm of the classical violin/fiddle, has gained her a large following in various genres of music. EricaJames has been playing together for about 12 years, 5 of which they toured nationally.

Erica says; "Playing music professionally and touring has given me a great opportunity to spend time with my dad. Playing the violin has allowed me to express myself in ways that words cannot. Having the ability to play with groups and musicians that I have admired from a young age has been a dream come true.

James says; "As a father touring and playing music with his daughter, I can't put in words how proud I am too watch Erica grow and become the masterful talent that she has. It has been and continues to be something I will forever cherish as a parent, a father, a co-worker and as a friend."

EricaJames continues to play locally and regionally. They are now joined by Rick Wescott on Bass and Justin Combs on drums.
