   About Eric Coomer
READ ERIC COOMER'S BLOG AT ericcoomer.blogspot.com.

Eric Coomer is currently devoting most of his musical energy to his band KNAPSACKHEROES!. As a solo artist Eric has built a name for himself as a talented musician, singer, songwriter, and worship leader.

Eric Coomer sings from the perspective of a fellow traveler who understands well the doubts and frustrations as well as the joy and laughter this life brings. Eric has never been afraid to tell the truth in all its ugliness and beauty in his songs. Nearly all of Eric's songs are autobiographical or biographical in nature. His songs shoot straight to the heart because they come from his heart.

The child of a father who is a retired United Methodist pastor and a mother who is a successful elementary music teacher, Eric has been performing since he was sixteen years old and writing since he was twelve. Eric is a native of Kentucky and now resides in Nashville with his wife, Daphne and son, Jackson.

A multi-instrumentalist and talented vocalist, Eric resists the common urge to classify his acoustic driven music, as it encompasses so many styles and genres. Artistically, his biggest influences include Over the Rhine, Sixpence None the Richer, Coldplay, Simon and Garfunkel, Derek Webb, and many others. Never satisfied sounding like anyone else, Eric strives to be an original and veer away from the ordinary.

Although not solely a worship musician, Eric regularly leads worship for his church and is actively pursued to lead worship by other organizations and groups.

I just posted a new blog that you will have fun with. You know me and those Christian debates. I come across very anti-Christian though I'm afraid. It's all part of the master plan...not mine, but someones... SEE-YA!

I don't mind being #4 on your list. Being behind your Dad doesn't bother me in the slightest either. BUT I'm ranked below Emo Eric and that bothers me. We need to get our priorities straight Mr. Coomer. ALSO...I got my new camera today (Canon 40D). I had to sell a kid to afford it but I guess it was worth it. I should call you instead of typing all this junk.
Okay, See-ya!

Yes, lets do! I need to send you some very sweet Daphne and Jackson pics from that place we were that time... The Foundry! What a cool place, eh? I'm slow as Christmas but I will send them your way asap! :) I like that song "Nothing." Great lyrics, great sound... good stuffy stuff stuff like you could find at the Stuff Mart only better! better different! (veggi tales meets kicking & screaming only in my world):)
