“Read his blog “The Grande Debris” because it is full of experiences and revelations from his decades on the road with everyone from John Hammond Jr. to Little Feat, John Mayall to Jerry Douglas and The Pretenders to Nick Lowe…”

Here’s what the Midwest Record says:

How do you call this sidekick to unique personalities ranging from Nick Lowe to John Koerner an under achiever? This multi instrumentalist bad boy could easily be a superstar in his own right but he seems to be under the spell of The Holy Modal Rounders, Guy Clark and others that could have really made it but seemed to make a concerted effort not to. Mixing organic writing and playing skills with personality, he has what it takes to be a massive, under the radar treat, since he’s already an underground star…

This show is a few solo sets by Eric Sommer, lead singer and guitar player for The Fabulous Piedmonts. And The Piedmonts may show up, but as of now it’s just Eric Sommer, back in Carrboro on this wonderful little stage at Lapin Bleu. Don’t forget – you can hear the Piedmonts on Spotify, Soundcloud and right here on their song portfolio!

Wait, what? You’re still here? GO!

Open Tunings, and so much more

With open tunings, slide guitar, lap-slap tone guitar, this show is exciting. And a remarkably aggressive fingering style approach makes watching Eric Sommer so fun and crazy! It’ll make you jump out of your seat and holler for joy! There are very few players who have maintained this authentic American style of guitar and Eric Sommer is one of the very best…!
