Headlining: Eric George
Genre: Folk / Americana

A prodigy of the masters of folk from Woody to Pete to Bob, Eric George is a locally beloved raw americana mastermind whose soaring, sandpaper voice is one you've probably stopped to give to listen to on Church St, at the best open mics Burlington has to offer or on the grassy patches of UVM every evening. Picking at an acoustic guitar or banjo like he came out of the womb knowing how to play it so well, Eric George is a young folk talent whose music is heartfelt but not too sappy, crisp and original but owing to past string-masters before him. We don't expect Mr. George to be hanging around Vermont much longer once the wind starts calling his name and he wins over the ears and hearts of barefoot folk lovers across our land.
Come on down to The Skinny and give a listen to this young, undeniable talent from 9-11pm tonight!
