Today we’d like to introduce you to Erin Sunbaby.
Hi Erin, it’s an honor to have you on the platform. Thanks for taking the time to share your story with us – to start maybe you can share some of your backstories with our readers?
I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio always singing, writing, doing anything creative. Once I turned 19, I decided it was time to put my dreams into action. and moved to Nashville to pursue songwriting. While doing this, I discovered more about myself than I ever could have imagined. I became a TikTok personality promoting body positivity and self-love, which changed my life for the better. Growing up my outlet was always singing and writing songs. I spent years being bullied for my body, my weight, everything about me. As a young kid that leaves a lasting impression, but being able to write songs gave me an escape. TikTok allowed me to combine the two things that mean most to me, music and self-love. being able to show other young girls how to love their bodies at any state has been absolutely incredible, it’s made me realize how much I would have valued from someone like me growing up. I’m so grateful to be in Nashville and pursuing this career while also making a difference as much as I can and reminding everyone who will listen the power and importance of self-love.
I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle-free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
Absolutely not. To this day I get harassed for being “overweight” or not having an ideal body type. try as I might, there are moments where it still gets to me. but knowing how strong and beautiful my body is and all the hardships it has carried me through reminds me not to listen to the negativity.
Appreciate you sharing that. What else should we know about what you do?
I am an alternative singer/songwriter planning to release music this upcoming year. I am a storyteller but in an original way. my music is a mix of modern alternative and nineties grunge, creating a unique sound that I am so insanely proud of. My voice is low and raspy, giving me a natural edge that I have embraced with open arms. I also have a podcast streaming exclusively on Spotify! It’s Just Not That Serious is my personal podcast based around mental health and comedy, starting conversations that feel heavy and big but don’t have to be, because it’s just not that serious!
Alright so before we go can you talk to us a bit about how people can work with you, collaborate with you or support you?
Shoot me a dm on Instagram! @sunnbaabyy I’m always looking to work with other creatives and TikTokers to make content and build connections! I’m also always down to co-write and make some magic with music!
