Hi, I'm Erica, and I sing and write songs and play guitar and various instruments in Blondfire. I actually found Steve. Uh, in the casual encounter section of Craigslist. Yeah, you know. I don't know. It was the like, you know, you type up I saw you peeling a banana, you know. That was very sensual. Very sensual banana peeling, so it worked out. Good thing I peeled that banana. Oh, oh and oh. You're such a beautiful girl. Um, it was really fun collaborating with Avicii. It was a really cool opportunity that came came to us and um we were really excited uh to be able to do that and we got together and my brother and I wrote a song with him.

And it was a really fun experience and to actually make it on the record, um True was was really cool and I've been seeing all these videos all over the internet of him traveling the world, playing these gigantic shows uh with fireworks going off and things and and hearing my voice um along to that is pretty cool. Just give it up. With the kids are only free tonight. Opening up for All Nation was awesome for us. We went out with them for two months. Uh, it's great, they're just an awesome live band and I feel like we learned a lot from them as as a band and they were they were all really cool. Um, trying to think of what was like a funny story that happened with them?

Uh oh, they're all too dirty to tell. Give it up. Give it up. House in the wilderness of night. Night and up. Just give it up. What the kids are only free tonight. All the songs usually are just my brother writing on it. Um, but we ended up writing with a good friend on that song. Basically, mostly the lyrical concept came from him. He had the idea of waves and uh basically the song's about just life's ups and downs, good thing followed by a bad thing. You hear them when you try to fall asleep. They crash to the shore. They come from the deep. I always love playing in New York.

I just love I I lived in New York for a couple years and it's just fun going back there and there's such an energy in that city that it's it's fun. Well, we have good shows everywhere. It's funny like The The Goat Farm in Atlanta always sticks out. It's a super cool venue and that was fun. Yeah, that's a really cool venue. Yeah. Waves just like a dream. Silver and green, we're in between. I remember like thinking in fifth grade. I for some I've curly hair, obviously and I thought it was a good idea to cut my hair short. Not a good idea. It was like a little afro going on.

It did not look good and I think like Sun In might have been in or something and I I like tried to bleach my hair and it was just like an orange permanent orange afro was kind of kind of the vibe. I did like the whole at-home highlights. Oh my gosh. Just for Yeah, had Go-Go Dolls hair before. Yeah, for like a solid warrior. It's pretty He I've seen pictures. It's pretty dialed in. What I would recommend to any up-and-coming artist is basically figure out who you are and what makes you different and stand out. Don't try to be somebody else and just go with that and be true to yourself cuz you'll actually do something and you'll stand out. No one can be you, so be the best you.

Waves kicking you up, pushing you down. They're always around. Waves just like a dream. Silver and green, we're in between. Hey, we're Blondfire and you're watching Young Hollywood.
