Erva Carter is a Los Angeles-based singer/songwriter with a sound that is big and bold, yet smooth and calming. Since Erva is inspired by a diverse group of artists, she offers a sound that is refreshingly unique. Erva crosses boundaries by merging airy sounds with a sultry soulfulness that results in a sound that is all her own. In collaboration with Houston-based producer Justin “8mos” Lewis, Erva brought her uniqueness to the historic Sugarhill Studios to create her most recent singles from her upcoming debut EP, “Euphoria” and “Night ‘n Day”. Erva’s goal with her music and image is to inspire others that may feel alienated to embrace their uniqueness. As a result, Erva is in the process of putting the finishing touches on her debut EP, Transformer, for us to experience this April. Make sure you don’t miss out on what’s next for her by checking her website, ervacarter.com, and catch the wave!
