Eric is in the middle of a national tour and we were able to snag him for one night only at the Sapphire Room. This will be a night to remember.
Check out his web page at: http://www.bluerubymusic.com/home/News.html This guy has done it all, and had the good fortune to be in the right place at the right time.
From his biography:
Taylor learned intricate blues guitar stylings from music legends Lightnin' Hopkins, Mance Lipscomb and Mississippi Fred McDowell . Later, he developed his own unique guitar picking style, which became the template for many of his contemporaries from the early Houston days, such as Guy Clark, Townes Van Zandt, Robert Earl Keen, Lyle Lovett, Steve Earle, and Nanci Griffith. "There were no lines drawn in the sand between musical genres in Houston back in those days," Taylor remembers. "You were just a musician. I believe so many great writers came out of that scene because you could learn from others. Isn't that the point of this whole thing?"
