Press Reviews "Combined with the coffee I snuck into the show, I felt relaxed and would recommend Erik to anyone".- The Roseville Raider Reflector "I usually look for and enjoy music from people who are trying, in their own way, to reveal the mysteries of their own lives, look at themselves and the universe and try to bring something profound and moving into the public realm. Erik does that, and well...He's someone I look towards with a smile on my face, because he's not afraid to write the music he writes and bares his soul in the process." - Jay Miller, livejournal.com
