Erica Brown | Wolf Den Records | Indie Record Label in Colorado

Erica Brown has long been a mainstay in Colorado’s Music scene. Since 1998 she has been singing and living the blues. Throughout her career her band has been voted Best Blues Band (Westword Magazine) Best Underground Blues Band (Denver Post, multiple years), and a quick internet search will show that she’s played with more heavy-hitting blues musicians than you can count.

Fast forward to 2026, and she’s partnered with producer and guitarist Julian Peterson on a new project, as a tribute to the great Big Mama Thornton. Together they’ve re-imagined her songs, often adding soul influences and even digging deeper into the African influences in which blues was founded on. They were able to debut those songs at the 2023 Greeley Blues Jam festival, opening up for Louisiana guitarist Tab Benoit. They’ve been able to share this project with many other Colorado venues and festivals, including selling out the Armory in Fort Collins, and two straight years of maximum capacity attendance at FOCOMX.

The new EP titled “Willie Mae Sings Willie Mae” is now launching its fundraiser campaign, so that this music can be shared with a wider audience!
