Erin Beck

Erin Beck (born December 26) is a Grammy-nominated American songwriter. She is best known as co-writer of the eight times platinum pop record "Sexy and I Know It" by the band LMFAO. Beck also co-wrote the title track from LMFAO's RIAA certified Gold second studio album, titled "Sorry For Party Rocking", along with Calvin Harris' "Reminds Me of You".

Early life and education Born in San Diego, California, she began writing at a young age under the encouragement of her mother, who was also a writer. While exploring writing through essay contests and short stories, she also developed a love of music, and she became involved with musical theater, her local worship band, and a bell choir. Beck first explored songwriting in high school, in the form of remixing songs from her favorite artists by re-writing their lyrics and re-recording her own vocals using a karaoke machine.

Beck graduated from UCLA with a degree in Film and Television, where she produced two short films, both of which she wrote the scores for.

Early career While still in school at UCLA, Beck began teaching LSAT prep courses for Blueprint Prep, where she first received the nickname "Legally Blonde," which would later turn into her writing persona "Lyrically Blonde."

In 2013, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike selected Beck and Kinetics & One Love (the writers behind B.o.B.'s hit "Airplanes") to co-write the vocal accompaniment to their track "Ocarina". The song, renamed "Find Tomorrow (Ocarina)", was to feature vocals by UK recording artist Katy B. It was released on November 29, 2013. In 2014, she co-wrote the vocal version of the Steve Aoki track "Delirious (Boneless)", featuring Kid Ink, along with Whitney Phillips, Jenson Vaughan, and Aid "Valsal" Vllasaliu.
