Bio
"With one ear tuned to the sounds of the past and the other firmly facing forward, eric has developed a one of a kind take on the great music of the carolina hills and beyond. while the lineup of the group isn't quite set, eric and his rotating cast of musical cohorts can frequently be seen at plenty of great venues. plus, you can bet on the fact that, whether you have the pleasure of seeing them in boston, or somewhere along the folk concert circuit, you'll be witness to a one of a kind show that's definitely something to write home about." -campusounds.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Amazing... Earthy funk and contemporary sophistication" -John McGann ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "Eric Robertson and the Boston Boys are at the absolute forefront of the acoustic string scene in the U.S.---a scene which is on fire!---but no one is more on fire with groove and creativity then they are." -Matt Glaser ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Boston Boys is a band from the hotbed of talented young players in the Boston music scene, and have created quite a buzz while touring the past two years at festivals and clubs. Featuring singer-songwriter and psychedelic soul mandolinist Eric Robertson, the band lineup rotates between an all-star cast of young musicians. The band has played at prestigious festivals and venues all over the country including Grey Fox Bluegrass Festival, Pagosa Springs Folk Festival, The Kessler Theatre, The Kennedy Center, Austin's South by Southwest, and consistently performs for a rapidly growing fanbase at shows all over the northeast. The members have performed with music legends from various genres such as Herbie Hancock, David Grisman, Tim O'Brien Billy Hart, Jonathan Edwards, Riley Baugus, and Jamey Haddad to name a few. The Boston Boys blend reverence for the Beatles and the energy of the Avett Brothers with roots in old R&B;, jazz, and Appalachian string band music. The result is tasteful, accesible, groovy, meaningful music with the highest regard for musicianship and instrumental skill. ....Purchase their debut album, "Listen", on www.thebostonboys.com and stay tuned to find out where you can see the Boston Boys live! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- check out some articles! http://www.berklee.edu/news/2441/berklee-riffs-the-boston-boys-go-beyond-bluegras ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- http://www.wickedlocal.com/wellesley/news/lifestyle/x710524879/Eric-Robertson-and-the-Boston-Boys-to-play-Wellesley -
