I'm a multi-instrumentalist, singer, and songwriter who moved in 2007 from my native New Mexico to Portland, Oregon. I've spent time as a singer/songwriter in the Boston folk scene, as well as juggling solo and band performances in Albuquerque. For a few years I was lead guitarist in the Albuquerque band Mystery School.
I've just finished my first solo CD, which is now available at shows and will be soon be available from Roomful of Sky Records.

hey Eric! love the songs! i feel the energy! i was trying to remember a song today that you played at my camp one time...I believe it was a children's song or something about the green grass or hills i believe?
great to see you, too. never feels like enough time, but it is. and we'll do it again! rumor has it that you left a cd with QTN for me. i can't wait to listen to it. you're a beauty walker yourself, mister.
I was thinking about how fortunate you are heading home to be close to family, friends and memories of the hills. And found myself here..... Thanks for playing your departing show at the Coconut my friend. Looking forward to that package :) Have a dance around the fire for me. - Alan
i was making an omelet this morning; and your song "break me open" came to mind... i read somewhere that the simon and garfunkle song "mother and child reunion" was written after paul simon was served some chicken and eggs...
