Erin Hogan

Growing up in Grafton, WI, Erin’s certainty of a life in music began at age 5. Performing and working on music in churches, school musicals, youth choirs, and bands through her adolescence fostered a love of harmonizing, collaborating, and listening deeply to others. Music and harmony inevitably became the lens through which she could view the world.

While Erin’s technical roots as a vocalist are in the western classical tradition earning degrees in vocal performance from DePaul University School of Music (BM ‘17) and Boston University (MM ‘23), her curiosity and passion for musical connection has led to an eclectic collection of musical experiences, including collaborations with musicians across genres in opera, chamber, early, and sacred music, as well as jazz, folk, and world music. Alongside her studies, her participation in the Silkroad Ensemble Global Musician Workshop has greatly inspired her musical path, sharing the stage with Mike Block, Jamey Haddad, Maeve Gilchrist, and Abeer Nahme, as well as musicians from around the world.

Her diverse interests have brought her to sing at venues and festivals such as Club Passim, The Rockwell Theater (Cambridge, MA), NEC’s Jordan Hall, Birdland Jazz Club (NYC), Graveside Variety (Woodstock, NY), and Boston Celtic Music Festival. As a highly sought after ensemble singer, she frequently sings with The Advent Choir, Nightingale Vocal Ensemble, Dreamglow, and various churches across New England. Looking ahead, Erin is creating space to perform and record her original music and collaboration with Celtic guitarist Adam Hendey. Alongside her creative endeavors, she is building a private voice studio and teaching, Vocal Harmony and Private Voice Lessons at Club Passim School of Music. She will soon be launching a patreon with exclusive content and monthly offerings. In addition to her musical interests, meditation and mindfulness practices have become essential to Erin’s artistry and wellness. As an extension of her practice, she organizes and hosts Kindred, a monthly gathering at the intersection of mindfulness and the arts in partnership with PCUSA and Vivid Oblivion, a multi-purpose interdisciplinary arts venue in Cambridge, MA.

Glad to welcome her work into the world.”
