A young and enthusiastic mountain dulcimer player and guitarist, Eric Elliott combines traditional acoustic instrumentation with a love of classic folk-rock to create a fresh and energetic style of American music.
Influenced by a west-coast dulcimer playing style, Eric's playing is upbeat, rhythmic, and fun to watch. Combine this technical instrumental skill with his thoughtful songwriting and melodic voice, and you have a unique sound that hearkens to the early songs of Paul Simon, Mimi and Richard Farina, Wilco, and Joni Mitchell.
Eric has played in bars, farmers' markets, back porches, and concert halls across the country, and has produced and released various collaborations with other talented musicians, including two full-length solo dulcimer albums. He has performed and taught lessons at several folk music festivals in Colorado, Washington and Texas and was named the 2019 Lone Star Mountain Dulcimer Champion!
