Erica Jacob Sings "I'm An Extraordinary Woman"

Erica Jacob was at the studio today delivering vocal touch ups to an ABBA-esque composition, written by Sahin and Tara Bahna James. The song was originally workshopped during Sahin and Bahna James' NYU Tisch School of the Arts study back in 2001. This is the first time the song has been recorded professionally with buddy-musicians Dennis DelGaudio (guitars and bass,) Mike Sorrentino (drums,) Carras Paton (saxophone) and Elyssa Samsel (violins.)

Erica sang "I'm an extraordinary woman/Too gifted to capture with your lens/The things that I'll do will rock you/Can't see what I got with just one shot/So look again"
