Eric Sommer in Carrboro • Saturday July 4th • 9am

Eric Sommer at Carrboro Farmers Market!

The Carrboro Farmers Market  is a force of nature, a swirling collection of vendors, bread tables, veggies, all manner of fruits and stuff and it’s the social high point on Saturday morning for this vibrant and eclectic community.

All human life forms are welcome, and if you are dragging yourself out of the Franklin Street scene at 7am, just hang out for a few hours, and you can fill up on so many natural elixirs and beverages, why, you’ll be right as rain in 1o minutes!

Poet, songwriter, helluva guitar player, writer and musical bon vivant, this is the place to be, especially if you want to listen to what’s important!

This is Eric Sommer… doing a solo set of songs and stories pulled from any number of previous releases, shows and Nashville sets.

This is Eric Sommer doing a solo set of songs and stories from any number of records and releases! The Fabulous Piedmonts are unable to make this Sunday show, but they are back in action the following week, so it’s on for Eric Sommer Solo  Saturday July 4th

Open Tunings, and so much more

With open tuning, 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
