This week, Ohio-based singer-songwriter Erica Blinn will be playing a free show at the Rockwood Music Hall in Manhattan on Thursday, May 9, at 6 p.m. Over the years, Blinn has established herself as a wholehearted Midwestern musician who breaks down the walls of country-influenced pop music by sticking true to her Americana roots. This year, she has also gained praise from sharing the stage with the likes of Lynyrd Skynyrd, Royal Southern Brotherhood and Devon Allman. Accompanied by her backing band The Handsome Machine, Blinn is currently touring in support of her latest release, Lovers In The Dust.
