Erinn Alissa
Erinn Alissa, A Bio
Born in Albany, NY, and now based in sunny Santa Monica, CA, Erinn Alissa is a folk pop singer-songwriter inspired by the sun-drenched golden era of the 1960s and ‘70s West Coast music scene. A natural-born performer, Erinn Alissa began writing songs from a young age and has made a name for herself performing covers and originals through residencies at some of Los Angeles’s iconic venues, including The Hotel Cafe, Molly Malone’s, and The Viper Room.
Having previously opened for Katey Sagal, Erinn Alissa consistently performs over 180 shows a year. Influenced by the likes of Stevie Nicks, Joni Mitchell, and Sheryl Crow, her music channels the traditional lyricism of the ’60s and ’70s through honest, deeply emotional lyrics with a modern twist.
Erinn has had her songs licensed in indie films, was a finalist in the American Songwriter national songwriting competition, and her single “Over You” garnered the attention of Buzz music and was featured on prominent Spotify playlists. Her EP release, “Restless,” received rave reviews.
Erinn’s latest release is the single “Jacaranda Trees,” which covers her reflections of the 2025 Los Angeles fires, in which she lost her home. The song was produced by and features guitar by Grammy®-winner Janet Robin (The String Revolution, Lindsey Buckingham, Precious Metal).
