Although the red mohawk and edgy clothing may seem intimidating, Eryn is truly the "kupcake" her fans refer to her as. With a colorful personality and down-to-earth charm, she captivates people not only through her music, but in her everyday life.

With her pop/punk style and catchy music, what's not to adore about Eryn Woods? Her message is simple and clear...love who you are. Eryn is a avid spokeswoman for individuality and freedom of expression, which she showcases well in her most recent video "Gangstas, Geeks, and Freaks." - Online Athens

“The entire album is centered around the dichotomy of what the general public deems as "normal" and what is "real" and celebrates the individuality of people” - Atlanta Magazine

“Great tempo and the dynamics of the song kept my interest throughout the entire song. This could be on the radio if it isn't already. She has an awesome and unique voice. I would buy her album. Harmony, tone, rhythm all great.” - Reverbnation

Move over pop divas, there’s a new hit maker invading the music industry and her
name is Eryn Woods. Out to change the image of pop music, Eryn is absolutely
bringing something fresh. A talented singer who is clearly influenced by such talented
artists as Gwen Stefani, Pink, and Fergie, Eryn could quite possibly be the next
superstar pop sensation.

My favorite song by Erin is “This My Shhh” because it’s so energetic and full of sass.
On the song she tells us to “call the radio to request my shhh…” which, quite frankly,
we should because the song deserves to be there. The song has a lot of club appeal
and is highly recommended for those who like today’s Top 40 hits.

Another song I liked from Eryn’s collective hits is “Fantastic Breakup”, where Eryn
proclaims in the song’s chorus, “This has got to be the best break up ever.” In the
song the singer shares how she has experienced a number of heated arguments with
a significant other to the point of her leaving the relationship, but when they make up
its “fantastic”; hence the title of the song, Fantastic Breakup.

"My ultimate goal with my music and my music career is to be able to connect with the
consumers and giving them music that is clean and fun to listen to. I always said that I
wanted to make music that everyone of all ages can listen to. I grew up being
influenced by music and what I listened to, I want to be a good role model for all ages."

Overall, Eryn is a good artist who deserves to be heard. Her new album, Holl.E.Woods,
releases on May 24th and I encourage everyone to show their support of this awesome
new artist. - I am Entertainment Magazine

It's not all that difficult to locate budding Atlanta pop princess Eryn Woods in the lunch hour crowd at Panera Bread in Buckhead. For starters, she's the only customer in the joint with a crimson mohawk, nose ring and a purple bow resting atop her head with matching fingernail polish.

With her new EP, "Holl. E. Woods" just a few hours away from hitting the iTunes store and retailers, Woods is finding it difficult not to vibrate out of her chair, let alone focus on her soup and salad. The 21-year-old Louisiana native has every reason to be excited. The six-song release, filled with hypnotic beats, jagged edges of guitars and lyrics filled with a fierce independent streak is the ideal windows down, radio blasting summer soundtrack. And it doesn't hurt that this girl can saaaaang either.

Tonight at 9 p.m., Woods will demonstrate live at her album release party for "Holl. E. Woods" at the Drunken Unicorn at 736 Ponce de Leon Ave in Midtown.

With Lady Gaga as the current reigning queen of pop, it's not a bad time to be Eryn Woods, a girl who grew up listening to Cyndi Lauper and Madonna albums and sang her way into the semi finals of the reality show "Gospel Dream" where she caught the ear of Atlanta Grammy nominee Kelly Price. Unlike most of the pre-packaged pop stars currently winning Grammys who can't actually sing on the same awards telecast live (we're talking to you, Taylor Swift), Woods has pipes to spare.

"It's one of the things I really take pride in," she says. "I've been doing this my entire life. It's all I know. I don't know what I would do in life if I wasn't singing. I feel like the entire reason I was put on this earth is to sing, make music and to entertain people."

Her new single, "This My Shhh" has blown up, thanks to a fun, come hither video posted on YouTube and a lead off position on the season finale of the MTV reality hit "Jersey Shore."

"I was on tour in San Francisco the night the season finale premiered," Woods recalls. "When I got off stage, I couldn't figure out why I had all these Facebook friend requests and why my phone had blown up with voice mails and texts. In one month, the video has had 10,000 new hits. That's amazing for an unsigned artist. And because the show is OnDemand, it's been running forever! It's been an incredibly cool way to get my music introduced to people."

Lyrically, the tune tip-toes right up to and flirts with using a naughty word without a Cee Lo trip back into the studio to edit out a certain F-word in order to perform your hit on the Grammys with the Muppets.

"If we had actually used the word, it would have limited the song in some way," Woods explains. "By not using it, my mom drives around in her Mini Cooper blaring that song with my 13 and 11 year-old brothers in the back seat. I've always said I want everyone to be listen to my music. I don't want to exclude anyone."

Woods also communicates directly with her fans (delectably nicknamed Kupcakes) via Facebook and Twitter where her young listeners thank her for floating outside the mainstream. Relates Woods: "This young girl just wrote to me on Facebook and thanked me for being me and for showing her that it's OK to stand up for being different. Through my music, she heard that you don't have to change who you are for the world, for guys or to fit in. That touched me so much. That's the reason I do this."

Her female fans are also responding to "Laughin' At Ya," a playful kiss off to an ex on "Holl. E. Woods." "The reaction to that song has been so unexpected!" she says. "When I recorded it, I felt every word."

So, is there any one individual she visualizes when she performs "Laughin' At Ya?" "Oh, I visualize every man who has ever screwed me over," says Woods laughing. "You should have seen me in the vocal booth recording that. I was in there, flinging my arms, screaming, dancing, moving my head. Once women begin getting successful, these guys come crawling back out of no where. The song is saying, 'Guess what? If I wasn't good enough to be with back then, you don't deserve to be with me now.' I was really talking to that person too. We were able to capture the emotion of that experience. Don't let the red mohawk fool you. I'm a normal girl who gets heartbroken just like everyone else. The cool thing is I get to go into the studio and say something about it." - Atlanta Magazine

Her 80's Inspired, European-feel music was described in comparison to the Pop/Rock mix of Cyndi Lauper and Pat Benetar with more modern vocals similar in style to Avril Lavigne and p!nk.....Physically, her style is designed to appeal to mass audiences, however primarily directed at those interested in the more unique lifestyles. Basically, the teens and the gays will love her. I told her to describe her unique sense of style to which she replied, "Unfortunately people do judge a book by it's cover so self-expression has always been heavy with me. That's why i'm a 'what you see is what you get" kinda girl-- mo'hawk and all!"
