Rita Eriksen is without doubt considered as one of Norway's best lead singers. In addition to her own career, she is frequently used by Norwegian musicians. Vamp, Jonas Fjeld, Kinesere, Hellbillies, and Reidar Larsen are just a few that have asked her to partake in their productions because of her outstanding voice.

In 1996 she released the album Tideland with the well-known singer Dolores Keane on the record label Kirkelig Kulturverksted. This was a CD that was very well received and showed that Rita Eriksen is also a master singing Norwegian traditional folk music. Rita is known for her ability to express different directions in her singing.
