Eria Fachin

Eria Fachin was a Canadian dance pop singer, best known for her 1988 single "Savin' Myself". Originally from Hamilton, Ontario, Fachin began performing in the Toronto area at the age of 15 in a variety of capacities, including nightclub performances, roles in musical theatre, recording commercial jingles for local advertisers and performing on television variety shows. She also recorded a number of singles during this era, including "I'm Not Your Puppet", and married her musical collaborator Lou Bartolomucci in 1986. Fachin released her debut album, My Name Is Eria Fachin, on Critique Records in 1988, and toured across Canada to support the album as an opening act for Candi and the Backbeat. Three singles were released from the album, "Savin' Myself", "Your Love Just Came Too Late" and a cover of The Supremes' "I Hear a Symphony". "Savin' Myself", Fachin's biggest hit in Canada and internationally, peaked at No. 22 on the RPM charts the week of July 2, 1988, as well as reaching the top 15 in the magazine's adult contemporary charts. The song also peaked at No. 50 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States, and at No. 33 on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart.
