Standout Canadian Alt-Pop Artist, Elena Erin, Realizes Her Discontent With the Glamorous New York Party Scene on Edgy New Single, "Sick Rich Girl"

Release Date: Friday, August 30 2024


Brimming with unmistakable originality, Canadian Alt-Pop artist Elena Erin creates a magnetic musical tapestry that blends Alternative, Electronic, and Dance elements with relatable lyrical depth. Reaching #2 on the CBC Top 20, Elena Erin’s “Build A Ship” introduced her to the global musical market where she quickly amassed over four million streams. Drawing comparisons to artists like Billie Eilish, Halsey, Gwen Stefani, and Cyndi Lauper, Elena Erin is an artist who weaves thoughtfully crafted lyrics on an intentionally constructed melodic fabric. From a small town in northern British Columbia to a mainstay in the UK music scene, the Berklee College of Music graduate is a completely independent artist who continues to captivate audiences everywhere she goes. Discovered in New York by producers who decided to keep her demo vocals on a track intended for another artist, Elena Erin found both her voice and musical narrative - sharing the personal experience of going from a small town girl to the top of the New York social scene. Her extraordinary ability to distill her movie-like life experience into songs that are relatable to every listener showcases her incredible songwriting talent, and unique take on life’s most fantastic encounters. As she gears up to release her third studio album titled “Roaring 20s” in early 2025, Elena Erin will be releasing “Sick Rich Girl”, an Electro/Dark Dance-Pop single about realizing that getting everything she had dreamed of did not make her happy. “Sick Rich Girl” will be released everywhere on Friday, August 30 2024.


"Sick Rich Girl," was written by Elena Erin and was produced and engineered by Pablo San Martin (Nile Rodgers). The track was mastered by Grammy, Latin Grammy, and Diamond certified mastering engineer, Alex Psaroudakis.


About "Sick Rich Girl ":

A masterfully crafted musical lesson covering the concept that all that glitters is not gold, Elena Erin’s “Sick Rich Girl” is an Electronic, Dance-Pop track centered on the discovery that what she thought would bring her joy actually make her miserable. With its moody-yet-chic ambiance set against the backdrop of a Gossip Girl-esque, big city party scene, the song opens with an atmospheric, drum driven beat. Skillfully written with the intention of the music serving the representation of the party and the lyrics as representation of her internal state, Elena Erin delves into wants-turned-needs of those who aspire to be part of the high society only to find a feeling of emptiness when making it in. Using a mixed tempo, the lyrics question everything going on around her - including if the partygoers feel the same way. Intended to highlight the juxtaposition of the desire for the high-life and what it really means, “Sick Rich Girl” introduces the Gatsby focused concept of Elena Erin’s forthcoming album, “Roaring 20s”.


Sick Rich Girl’ summarizes the party scene - living at the peak of everything and realizing you’re miserable in it.” - Elena Erin
