Musician

Erica Seguine

Born:

Erica Seguine is a composer, arranger, conductor, pianist, and educator living in the NYC area. In 2011 she co-founded, with composer Shon Baker, their 21-musician ensemble, the Erica Seguine/Shon Baker Orchestra (ESSBO.) Since then, they have performed all around NYC, including Birdland Jazz Club, the Jazz Gallery, Lunar Faire (a witchy/weird night market/festival), Culture Lab LIC, ShapeShifter Lab, Tea Lounge/Slope Lounge, Grace Church, and had a monthly residency for one year (2013) in Montclair, NJ. In 2017, New York Music Daily has said “In terms of majestic sweep, cinematic scope, and clever outside-of-the-box humor, it’s hard to think of a more interesting group in big band jazz...” They were also written about in a 2019 New York Times article by Giovanni Russonello about the current big band scene. In August 2019, the orchestra went into Oktaven Audio to record their debut album, with Darcy James Argue producing and Brian Montgomery engineering. It will be released March 31, 2023.
