Erik Lankin is a composer and producer of new classical music, based out of Montréal.
He combines classical instrumentation and contemporary sound design to create compositions which are deeply narrative and emotional.
He began composing for solo piano in his early teens and has experimented with everything from twelve tone serialism to jazz covers of Céline Dion. However his touchstone material is rooted in tonal harmonies and sweeping melodies.
He is currently in the final stages of his highly anticipated debut release, The Icarus Album.
Erik has dedicated his non musical life to struggling as an ally for Indigenous sovereignty and self determination. This takes the form of independent media creation, frontline activism, and speaking as a panelist to non indigenous communities.
He aspires to unite his divergent life paths and collaborate on creative projects that inspire people to think and act in new ways.
