Eric Long

Folk troubadour Eric Long expertly blends folk, early country, and blues into songs that’ll make you laugh, cry, and feel everything in the subtle space between. Fans of John Prine and Jerry Jeff Walker will feel right at home with a sprinkle of of Jimmy Buffet’s island charm. NPR’s All Songs Considered called his voice timeless, well-traveled, self-reflective and pure, while Relix has called his albums easy to love. For folk fans who enjoy a little grit, you’re sure to feel something, and you’ll always be entertained.

"His work resides at the heart of what Woody Guthrie was talking about when he asked and answered whose land this is. By listening to him, one gets the sense that he knows you, that he’s heard your stories and felt your struggles and understands your highs and your lows. He, like so much else, was made to be shared, made to be cherished, made for you and me." - For the Folks

Eric has opened for the Grammy artists Fantastic Negrito, Shawn Colvin and Marc Cohn as well as acoustic and country music greats Doug MacLeod, Guy Davis and Josh Turner.
