Live music on Bainbridge

Eric Auckerman is a roots Americana musician who draws influence and inspiration from John Prine, Johnny Cash, Bill Withers, Lou Rawls, Gordon Lightfoot, Lightening Hopkins Guy Clark and others. He has performed in Europe, Canada, the West Coast and in Nashville, his music has been described as "heavy mellow" as his songs offer a blend of Americana but with European sensibilities. His guitar playing has elements of second-guessing and risk-taking but whose roots are in American Blues and-finger style folk circa the late 60's and early 70's. His voice can be likened to that of "70's Gold" but think baritone crooner with Bluesy nuance and warmth, nothing shrill and always breezy.
