An Evening with Eric Andersen

Kate Taylor opens. Eric Andersen is a first-generation standout in the Greenwich Village folk revival of the 1960s. At age 20, he was celebrated as the emerging star of the Village folk scene by New York Times critic Robert Shelton, who famously championed the young Dylan a few years prior. Over a career spanning 28 releases he has embodied the popular transition from acoustic American roots music and politically motivated topical song in the ’60s to the mellower, brilliant and more personally inspired singer-songwriter movement of the ’70s and beyond. Eric has been known as a ‘songwriters songwriter’ His songs have been recorded by some of the best ranging from Johnny Cash and Fairport Convention to Bob Dylan, Linda Ronstadt, and The Grateful Dead, among others.
