About Me

Hi, I'm Eric. I play guitar, lap steel, banjo, piano, etc. This is my first time playing anything by myself, so bear with me as I figure this all out. I play ambient, experimental, post-rock -ish music that incorporates a lot of layering and looping and ranges from very quiet to mildy quiet. Any feedback / comments would be much appreciated. Thanks.
