Erica Mantone is a Boston-based singer-songwriter, producer, and session musician.
2022 Boston Music Award nominee for Vocalist of the Year and Americana Artist of the Year is celebrating the much anticipated release of her first original EP, “I May Have Asked for This, released in May 2022. Also nominated for the Boston Music Awards “Session Musician of the Year” in 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2023 Erica Mantone has made her mark in the New England music scene, lending her vocals both in the studio and on stage to such local favorites as Buffalo Tom, Will Dailey, Chuck McDermott, Parlour Bells, and Magen Tracy & The Missed Connections. Mantone’s ability to adapt to a wide variety of genres has garnered her comparisons to the powerful voices of Merry Clayton, Brandi Carlile, and Chaka Khan as well as the softer, sweeter tones of Emmylou Harris and Linda Ronstadt.
Through her role as an executive producer (and performer) for both the Boston Rock Opera and Bust Out Boston: A Celebration of Womxn in the Boston Music Scene, she also embraces her other passion: promoting diversity and community through music.
Mantone released “I May Have Asked for This” with Henley Studios producer Dan Nicklin (Old Jack) and Nate Leavitt (Nate Leavitt & The Elevation.)
