About Me
View Erik Smallwood's EPK
Erik Smallwood wants to be the bluesy-soul in your right ear and the pop-rock in your left. A recent transplant from Alabama, you might not have heard of him, but you have heard his music all around the Triangle. Blessed with a sensuous bluesy growl, Erik flawlessly blends his God-given gifts with incredible pop-driven hooks and soulful guitar wrangling to create a sound entirely his own.
Grasping his roots in gospel music and using U2, Sting, and Jeff Buckley as wings, Erik Smallwood wants you to hear his music and wants it to change your life as it has his. A fun-loving man with a wickedly quick wit, Erik's stage presence is entertainment in and of itself. Do yourself a favor, follow in the footsteps of enraptured audiences all over the southeast, and come out to hear Erik Smallwood.
