Compartir este evento

" Eric Kilburn is extraordinary songwriter, guitar and mandolin player. For decades he has been Boston's well kept secret, because he has been so busy making other players and writers sound amazing, through his top flight recording and sound reinforcement services to the folk and acoustic world. Here is your full exposure to the constant prolific output of songs that Eric has produced, on top of his full schedule of services to our community. Songs that celebrate joys of family, romance, passing of time, the absurdity of human relations..... Let's celebrate Eric Kilburn" DEAN STEVENS

In the 80s, Eric Kilburn played regularly at legendary Club Passim in Cambridge, MA. Before being the featured artist, he opened for Shawn Colvin, Tracy Chapman and Eric Andersen and had songs covered by Arlo Guthrie and Pete Seeger.

Eric started a family in 1989 and changed focus from performing to building his studio, Wellspring Sound, now one of the largest studios in New England.

Fast forward to 2019 when Eric's youngest child graduated from college and he put together his first album since 1990, My Own Mistakes, a song cycle starting with the reflections of an expectant father, and concluding with a story of being the oldest man at the Thanksgiving table. These new songs earned Eric a spot at Kerrvilles New Folk Songwriting contest.

With his songwriting fire rekindled, Eric spent time during the pandemic writing and recording his next album from home. Reckonings contains four songs that deal with racial justice in America, as well as several humorous and ironic songs about life and relationships in the 21st century.
