Erika Spring is an American singer-songwriter and keyboardist best known as a founding member of the Brooklyn-based synth-pop trio Au Revoir Simone. Her solo work, which emerged in the early 2010s, represents a shift toward a more atmospheric and introspective sound compared to the bright, motorik-influenced pop of her primary band.
Her sound identity is defined by breathy, multi-tracked vocals, vintage synthesizer patches, and a heavy use of reverb that places her firmly within the dream pop and chillwave-adjacent scenes of the era. Collaborations with Jorge Elbrecht (of Violens and Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti) have been central to her aesthetic, resulting in a production style that emphasizes analog textures and a 'submerged' sonic quality. Critically, she is viewed as a key figure in the 21st-century Brooklyn indie-pop landscape, bridging the gap between accessible pop structures and experimental, moody electronics. Her influence is felt among contemporary artists who prioritize vocal texture and 'vibe' over traditional high-energy pop production.
