**"Brooklyn-based folk duo The Ericksons claim a smorgasbord of disparate influences, from the usual suspects (Bob Dylan, Lucinda Williams et al.) to the less obvious, such as Radiohead and Yo La Tengo. But it is the joining of those seemingly contrasting inspirations that ultimately produces the pair’s sparkling take on the well-trod paths of American folk songwriting. With a keen appreciation of Americana storytelling and a gift for heart-wrenching melodicism and stunning harmonic twists, their sound is a perfect marriage of tradition and modernism." (Dan Bolles, Seven Days)
“The Brooklyn-based duet’s take on Indie-Folk, with tight harmonies and intriguing instrumentation, makes each track a surprise—even when it’s been on repeat for two hours.” (Kenny Squires, www.nighttimes.com)
“The Ericksons may be one of the finest vocal duos in the musical world.” (wildysworld.blogspot.com)
