stories from the heart
and from the soul
Eric Moore is a midwestern, hands-on kinda guy. A product of the Pittsburgh region, he flew the coop after college and was held hostage by the West Coast lifestyle for 4 or 5 years before he broke that gravitational pull... so as to fall victim to the charms of Jackson Hole, WY. He wintered out in a yurt, got serious about the guitar, and guided rafting trips on the Snake River. If Paul Simon and Joni Mitchell wrote a song with Leo Kottke’s guitar, and then told Van Morrison to sing it, that would sound a lot like Eric Moore. Ypsi has been his home since 2002, and he’s been on most of the quality stages in the area: the Ark, Hollerfest, Ann Arbor Summerfest’s Top of the Park When he’s not obsessing about his music, he can be found baking sourdough, riding his bike, or out on the
cross country ski trail... with his dogs.
the experts have plenty to say, eh...
"...An instantly enviable introduction: Bluesy and soulful, with a charming swagger and rugged textures a la Eric Clapton and John Mayer, the four-track Brother feels more like a miniature greatest hits, than it does an initial offering." - Atwood Magazine
"brilliant upbeat energy and flow...
The depth in Eric's voice adds a beautiful old school feel to the production"
- F#Minor
​"Eric Moore delivers a compelling blend of jazz and folk that transports you to the golden days of rock and roll. With 'Brother,' Moore crafts a poignant folk ballad capturing emotional challenges from his past. Alive' stands out as a lively, jazzy anthem, reminiscent of a 'Pennylane' aura that makes you want to dance." - Sonic Verdict
"...compelling flow... evocative vocals." -Alpas Records
