Eric George
Writing with the lyrical conviction of an early Dylan and singing with the graceful twang of an Appalachian balladeer, Eric George is a Vermont-based songwriter immersed in American folk music. His albums are held in songbooks - each one printed, cut, and sewed by hand. With melodies and lyrics that stray off the beaten path, every song, album, and book is evidence of diligent practice rooted in tradition.
