Description

Join us for an evening with Eric Erdman Eric Erdman is a storyteller with a life that gives him stories to write songs about. His guitar takes him around the world and he can write four songs from one breakup. His lyrics are introspective but fun, quirky but accessible, profound and palatable, and they draw listeners in like old friends. With a voice that sounds like JJ Grey and James Taylor, Eric’s career began as the lead singer of the funk-rock band, The Ugli Stick. They released four albums, toured the country, and performed on three USO tours. In 2012, Erdman recorded his first solo album, My Brother’s Keepers, which showed his true essence as a songwriter and performer. He followed that up with Color the Silence, recorded in Australia. A successful Kickstarter campaign funded his new album, Not Slowing Down, which was recorded in Muscle Shoals with eclectic songs that are a mix of 70’s funk, pop-rock ballads, and a reggae murder mystery. “To me, being a true artist is being a tracker. You hunt for that next spark that electrifies or inspires you and then you genuinely listen to see where it is going. I wouldn’t say it is leading you per se, but it will tell you where it is headed. It is then up to you to catch up…. So I search for those sparks every day, in every situation…whether it be serious, sad, happy, or funky. And when I find one that lights me up….the chase is on. It is this chase that keeps me from slowing down.” To find out more about Eric Erdman, visit: http://www.ericerdmanmusic.com The Peoples Room of Mobile, formerly known as “The Listening Room of Mobile” features the finest local, national, and international singer/songwriters, storytellers, and musicians in an intimate setting where both artist and audience connect in a clean, quiet, and comfortable setting.
