Guitar with Eric M.

“Eric seamlessly pulls from his broad musical background to adapt to a performance’s needs, while simultaneously demonstrating a sincere emotional connection though his expressive style and down to earth demeanor.” –Mark Leombruni (Music Producer for ESPN, EA Games, and NPR) “If you are looking for a resourceful, patient, ambitious, talented, warm and funny man who goes above and beyond what is asked for without being asked, combined with old school solid character, you have found one in this individual.” –Frankie Keane (Associate Producer of “Live on Letterman”) With extensive knowledge of multiple styles ranging from Rock, Pop, Metal, Funk, and Soul, Eric M. has defined himself in the music industry as a true master of his craft with an identity all his own.
