Specializing in the fiery art of flatpicking, he has built a distinguished career writing, performing, recording, and teaching Americana music in and around Chicago, and beyond. Traces of rock, folk, bluegrass, country, and blues can be detected throughout his music, delivered with energy, soul, and inspiration. His voice, presence, and precision moves audiences to their feet, while his playful spirit and warm sense of joy makes them feel right at home.  Eric’s music resonates the old school philosophy of the groundbreaking musicians who inspired him; music should know no boundaries.Raised on Chicago's south side, he cites diverse influences as catalysts in shaping his unique roots music sound, such as Duane Allman, Dickey Betts, Bob Dylan, and Jerry Garcia. He excels at every style of music he performs, moving through them with an uncanny ease and smoothness. The richness of diversity in his influences is evident in his playing and throughout his vast career, which spans 10 countries as a solo artist and as a band member.
