Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on August 2, 2018•From Athens, NY
Eric played for our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour this past weekend. In the process of our wedding he was very responsive to our emails and checked in regularly. During our wedding we received a lot of compliments about E2 (Eric Erickson). He turned out to be a great acoustic guitarist and also a great vocalist for our cocktail hour. He was well prepared throughout the entire process and our guests loved him!

We hired Eric to play at our wedding ceremony. He did an incredible job and was very professional. He arrived early and had all the right equipment. I was so impressed with his voice and song choices. He learned a song to play as we exited our ceremony and he absolutely nailed it. Perfect for the occasion. Highly recommend!!!

Wedding•Reviewed on July 16, 2017•From Tannersville, NY
We discovered Eric playing at a local restaurant and was blown away with his voice - shortly after we asked him to provide musical accompaniment for our intimate wedding celebrations. He provided exactly what we communicated and so much MORE! He happily helped us finalize all the little details to ensure everything went smoothly day-of. He was enthusiastic, patient to the changing schedule, solution-driven and professional, a true expert in the industry. His music appealed to every person at our event and it was great to see everyone sharing in the love of his songs together! Eric truly made our wedding day something to remember and we cannot be more thankful!!!!!!!!

Eric performed during my ceremony and cocktail hour for my wedding. Though I didn't personally get to spend too much time listening to Eric play (as I was the bride), I had many guests come up to me afterwards asking where I found Eric because he was absolutely amazing and they were impressed with his talent! The whole experience working with Eric was fantastic. He was quick to answer emails or calls, provide solutions for my questions and was a true pleasure to work with. He always had a positive attitude and has a great library of songs to play during your special day. I highly recommend Eric You won't be disappointed!

Engagement Party•Reviewed on May 21, 2017•From Darien, CT
Erik was fantastic. He was very easy to work with ahead of the event, accommodated all our requests, showed up early, and played the whole night. Everyone at the party could not stop talking about him, and many wanted his information so that they could book him for there own events. You will not be disappointed hiring Erik, we could not have been more happy with how everything went.

Eric performed during our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour at our July wedding. He was incredibly flexible with all our requests, learned a song that wasn't on his list for our recessional, and was EXTREMELY patient as we went back-and-forth as to whether we would go outside and chance the weather or head under a tent for the ceremony (even though his instrument & dryness were at risk!). Cannot recommend him highly enough!

Eric was the most amazing guitarist for our wedding! He was so easy to work with and truly cared about making our event special. He played at our wedding ceremony and cocktail hour, and the guests kept coming to me during and after the wedding to rave about how wonderful he played and sang!!! His voice and talent is something special. Thank you so much Eric for making our event so incredible, we couldn't be happier to have had you!

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on April 14, 2016•From New York City, NY
Planning our wedding from overseas was both exciting and challenging - working with professionals like Eric made all the difference. Eric was absolutely brilliant - incredibly talented, enormously accommodating and very professional. He was flexible and responsive, learned the songs we requested and played them flawlessly, Music was one of the first things that brought Richard and I together and continues to be a big part of our lives, so the right soundtrack for our wedding day was key. Our standards are high and Eric didn't disappoint. Highly recommended!

Wedding Ceremony•Reviewed on March 14, 2016•From Albany, NY
I hired Eric to play at my wedding ceremony, and as a result, became a huge fan! Eric worked closely with me to pick the right songs that would work well with our vision. He was honest, knowledgable, and open to ideas throughout the process. He is a talented guitarist and also a strong vocalist. Many of my guests still talk about his performance, making it a very special part of the day. Eric is able to take requests, but even more impressive is his attention to the audience and surroundings. For example, my father mentioned a particular song in his toast, and Eric played it - right on the spot! I strongly recommend him as a musician and professional!

Eric is an amazing musician who is also extremely kind, punctual, and professional. He played to the crowd at our event perfectly. We hope to have another excuse to hire him again soon. Would HIGHLY recommend!

Many thanks to Rebecca and Matt for having me sing at the opening of their new marina. I had a great time and their potential clients were pleasant, respectful folks who seemed to be enjoying themselves a great deal. I certainly hope I have the opportunity to return to Freedon Marina and play more for the lovely people I encountered there.

Eric was amazing! He was extremely professional and accommodating to all requests. Eric performed at our rehearsal dinner and at a welcome party the night before our wedding. He helped set the ambiance throughout the evening. There were approximately 150 in attendance and they ALL had an amazing time thanks to Eric. It was so fun to see our friends and family singing along.

Funeral•Reviewed on September 27, 2015•From Monroe, NY
Eric performed at my wife’s funeral yesterday; an emotional time for my family and I. The church was completely full (standing room only). He was amazing. He played three beautiful songs at the conclusion of the ceremony: My Sweet Lord, Annie’s Song, and Let it Be. Eric poured heartfelt energy and passion into each song to lift our spirits. He performed with a flawless transition between the songs. A spontaneous connection occurred between the audience and Eric on “Let it Be” where everyone sang Let it Be! Let it Be! Eric was the buzz of the gathering afterwards where everyone commented that Eric was so talented, healing, and uplifting. We will hire Eric again.

Wedding•Reviewed on November 2, 2015•From Warren, NJ
Eric was absolutely wonderful! He provided the music for my mother's wedding which was an elegant luncheon on a Sunday afternoon. Everyone was blown away by his talent and he truly made the day.
Eric was easy and professional to work with. He responded quickly to emails and was accommodating to any requests we had. He was able to quickly learn a song that we requested for the ceremony and utilized the playlist we provided him.
I cannot recommend Eric enough for any event! We had several guests ask us for his contact information for their own events.

Birthday Party (Adult)•Reviewed on October 25, 2015•From Parsippany, NJ
Eric was awesome for so many reasons. He was professional, accommodating, wonderful to work with and so talented. My wife and I reviewed Eric's song list and chose the songs we wanted to hear for my 65th b'day party. He played all of those songs and more, making the evening a wonderful success. People were singing, dancing and clapping. Eric has a mellow voice and is a really talented guitarist. His "picking" skills were evident and he truly brings his guitar to life. People did not want to leave. Many of our guests let us know how much they enjoyed listening to him. If you want a party with great music of the 60s and 70s, go with Eric and enjoy.
