Erica Crider – Professional Voice Instructor in Riverside, CA and Online

Hello! I’m so glad that you’re here! My name is Erica Crider, and I am passionate about helping developing singers become successful.  In addition to being a vocal coach, I am also a singer, songwriter, and worship leader based in Riverside, CA.

I trained in musical theater as a child, and have performed in stage productions since I was 11. During my degree program at California Baptist University (CBU), I’ve studied both classical and commercial styles of singing. I also serve my community as a worship leader at events throughout the Inland Empire, but mostly at my home church, Crossroads Christian Church in Corona. 

Learning to sing can feel difficult and discouraging—but it shouldn’t be. With the right techniques, vocal improvement is not only possible but empowering. In my experience, understanding technique builds confidence and makes singing easier.

I teach because I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned with singers at every stage—whether they’re children just starting out, aspiring worship leaders, or experienced vocalists looking to break through barriers. My goal is to help each singer discover their unique, healthy, and powerful voice. Beyond technique, I believe music is a powerful  tool for self-expression and confidence.
