Erin describes the sounds on Love Whip Blues as a Blues/Roots/Americana cocktail. She sings songs about good luck in a soulful way on Good Luck Baby, she drives you down the tracks of the Delta on "The M&O Blues" & "Charles River Delta Blues. Erin will also get your Booty shaking on the swinging sounds of "The Delta Swing" & "Virtual Booty Blues".
