Lou,

Thanks for the extra info and please accept our condolenses on the passing of Eria. Vince DeGiorgio once expressed to me what a wonderful lady she was.

If you have a better photo than the one above I would be most happy to update with it. Any additional info on Eria would also be appreciated.

Just found this site. I was a trombonist in the Hamilton McMaster Jazz Band and Mohawk Jazz Band in 1981. 1981 saw the Mohawk Jazz Band win the Canadian Open Jazz Band Festival in Edmonton. Fronting the band for one of the three numbers which won us the competition was Eria Fachin singing 'Our Love Is Here To Stay' - an arrangement put together by the lead trumpet Ian Townsend (?). I often watch the video I have of this performance. I remember a number of performances of the band with Eria. Very sad to see such a young and talented performer pass.

Lou: My kids showed me how to google and the first person I looked up was Eria! What a shock! I am so so sorry for your loss. I have so many fond memories. Hope the name rings a bell for you!

I still have Eria's first album release. I can't tell you how many hours I spent listening to it...over, and over again ... LOL.
I just found this site, and discovered that we lost Eria, much too soon!!! A part of my youth that I cherish died when I read the news...I know she touched many lives though her music, and left us with many wonderful memories.

Hey Anita,
Yes I do rememeber you. How could I forget! You were one of Eria's closest friends. I hope you are doing great.
It amazes me how people still remember her and continue to contribute. Recently, I heard a completely new remix of Savin' Myself and I was blown away. (I wonder if Vince had anything to do with this?)
