Erica Dee Mah
Erica Dee Mah is a multi-instrumental musician and singer-songwriter based in Whitehorse, Yukon. This spring, she released "The Sargasso Season", an original collection of songs written on the guzheng, a 23-stringed Chinese harp. The album is an exploration of sounds and possibilities on a versatile traditional instrument, and seeks out a place for the guzheng in Canadian indie-folk-roots music. Erica writes about transoceanic journeys, Chinese-Canadian identity across generations, and finding connection in new landscapes. Exclaim! Magazine recently named Erica one of the "must-hear" emerging artists in Canada. She frequently performs with her husband, Darcy McCord, a classically-trained cellist. They will be joined by the innovative percussionist, Jordy Walker.
