Erica Lane
By Kim Ford
A
former Miss Houston and Top 10 US Miss World, Lane has toured the United
States and abroad and has performed at events with notables such as Jon Voight,
George Lopez and Chonda Pierce.
Lane’s music has been featured in nearly a dozen film and television soundtracks,
starring actors such as Ving Rhames (Mission Impossible), Muse Watson (NCIS), Eric
Close (Without A Trace) and Brian Litrell of the Backstreet Boys. As she continues
to produce stunning, imaginative lyrics and melodies, the demand grows for her
involvement in cinematic productions.
In addition to music, Lane starred in the family-friendly reality TV series, Inspired
Ambition, syndicated on national networks (FamilyNet, JCTV, Cornerstone TV) in the
USA, Canada, Africa, Estonia, Finland, Poland, Romania, India and others. Lane has
also appeared in commercials for Chili’s and the Superbowl Pre-Game, as well as
the TBS series Daisy Does America, produced by Courtney Cox and David Arquette.
Join me as Erica and I talk about her Christmas Album and Tour!
KF: Share with your listeners a brief insight into your music ministry and how you
reached a point where you were able to pursue this full-time.
EL: I began singing and touring professionally in 2007. I made a decision to step
away from my teaching job at the time to pursue music full-time. It has not always
been an easy road, but it has been very rewarding, and I have had incredible opportunities and blessings through it.
I’ve been able to travel across the US and internationally and I’ve had more and
more songs used in films. Even this year my song was included in “Left Behind”
starring Nicolas Cage.
