Eric came in last week for a Microshow. His unique style represents a quest to blend disparate musical parts into a cohesive, digestible whole. Eric recently completed his first solo album, Great Falling Sky. Comprising 11 tracks, it is an ambitious freshman effort, featuring complex vocal harmonies, bizarre synths, lush acoustic guitars, and musings on a decade of war, terrorism, and partisan infighting. He takes a lot of the complexities of his record but strips it down here in a three piece. Justin Parrot on upright and Scott Schoem on keys join Eric.
