Biography

Acclaimed for her “strong, delicious voice”, Mezzo-Soprano Erica Jeski has established herself as an eclectic Performer, active in both the Classical and Rock/Contemporary realms. Erica is a 29-year-old Vocalist, Opera Singer, Rock Singer, Music Educator, and Holistic Health Coach who graduated from Hartt School of Music (University of Hartford in CT) with a Bachelor’s Degree in Vocal Performance.

         In addition to performing, Erica has gained ample teaching and classroom experience over the years, which has fostered effective communication, a hard-working mentality, and a genuine passion for Music!

          Since earning a Bachelor’s in Music in 2013, Erica has performed with Metro West Opera, New York Opera Exchange, Boulder Opera, and countless bands throughout the country (including four Nationwide Tours in the last year with popular bands “Doobie Decibel System” and “Terrapin Flyer”). In addition to performing, Erica has also consistently taught private lessons and full-classroom Music classes.

       Erica has taught Transitional Kindergarten through Fourth Grade General Music with Music for Minors in San Mateo and Redwood City, CA Public Schools, which filled her arsenal with fun games, songs, and classroom-management techniques to succeed in any classroom! 

      With Hummingbird School of Music, she taught K-5 Music Classes in Redwood City and San Carlos Public Schools, including Group Piano, Group Ukulele, Group Chorus, and Group Rock band classes. 

        Additionally, Erica teaches in-home (currently Virtual) private lessons to students of all ages (Voice, Trumpet, Piano, Ukulele, Guitar and beginning Trombone) both independently and with New Mozart School of Music!

       Years of classroom/private lesson/performance experience combined with lifelong performing prowess, passionate integrity, and formal training make Erica’s approach to Music Education accessible, entertaining, authentic, relevant, and applicable.

Erica Jeski Music Studio also offers “Holistic Health through Music & Movement” Sessions, which marries Ericas passions: Holistic Health and Music.
Recently, we’ve started offering Public Speaking Lessons/Coaching, since healthy speech is naturally quite similar to healthy singing! Years of personal, hands-on Holistic Health practice meets ample stage-experience (delivering both written/sung messages to audiences of all kinds).
