Kelly Joe Phelps, Antony and the Johnsons, the Avett Brothers, Mahalia Jackson, Nina Simone, Ray Charles, Son House, Blind Willie Johnson, Dr. John, Diamanda Galas, Tom Farr, James Farr, Simon Honeyman, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, Sam Cooke, Elliott Smith, the Harmonizing Four.
Eric is a spastic yet soulful singer/pianist/songwriter. What we have here is three rather rough, unfinished tracks recorded at make nice studios. Be sure to check out James' and Simon's pages too. They are stellar fellars. Also check out the page for our little collective, "Honeyman and the Brothers Farr."
The hope is that by the end of the summer, I'll have completed my own solo album as well as the first album of Honeyman and the Brothers Farr. Woot woot!
oh man, i'm so glad you had a good time! Yes indeed, those guys are surely talented (and good looking). I saw the setlist posted up on their web board by some guy, it looks like it was a great show! Definitely worth the drive.
Things here are pretty status quo, you know, i did start that pe class, and thats about all thats happening these days. It looks like my parents are definitely going to let me go up there that week in august though, so i'm really looking forward to that a lot.
Has everything else been going well for you all too since you've been home?
hey eric!!! yeah lifes been alright, im pretty much ticked at the fact that i have to take finals after my christmas break, which ended yesterday. so today i went back to school and recieved 2 review packets that each have like 150 questions and i once i got them i basically wet my pants in fear...... but have fun on trying to win the lottery!!!! hahaha! oh well, at least the money that u woud have spent on a plane ticket will go towards ur education.. and her is another thought, put out a "tip" jar wherever u go and perform??? or just say its manditory for them to pay 100 dollars each haha!!!
it's funny that you should mention crooked still, you certainly know my taste quite well - they're one of my favorites! My dad actually showed them to me a couple years ago at one of those festivals we go to down here, they've played there a few times. Definitely a great band, especially that bluegrass with the cello sound they've got, it's fantastic.
anyway, everyone here is doing well and we all send our greetings up there. hope things are going nicely for you all as well. it's great to hear from you!
thanks for making your tunes accessible to the common man. New tunes? I'm trying to buy a piano to get back in the game. But right now, I'm bereft of tuneage.
duhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhuhude!!!!!!!! Gnarcore beats man! i was thinking, instead of "from the dirt" maybe it should be called "gnarly shred bra" like,instead of that spade oand shovel line, sing: "im gonna pick up my board and chihick, im gonna throw that chick whatever..." ya know?
