Erika Olson

Erika Olson’s music is a bold blend of traditional folk with a modern twist. Her debut album, This Is How I Pray (May 2023), has captivated audiences across the U.K., Europe, and the United States. With a voice likened to Everything But The Girl, Alison Krauss, and Emmylou Harris, and songwriting reminiscent of Joni Mitchell, Erika weaves deeply personal narratives into universal themes.

Since the album's release, Erika has performed from Scotland to North Carolina, at venues including the Black Deer Festival, Elderflower Fields Festival, and Hastings Fat Tuesday and became a finalist in the prestigious Purbeck Rising Competition.

Americana Highway hails her as “a modern-day troubadour” with “impeccable musicianship and vocals.” Erika Olson combines timeless and timely music with persuasive, endearing artistry.
