Eric and Suzy at "Strings", Drawing by Christopher Peterson.

Welcome to our schedule page, here's where you can hear us during the next little while. Our new CD is done and we changed the name to "Dream Shadows" - we hope to have them by the time of our July Cajun dance at Ashkenaz (July 19). Meanwhile, here are some places we'll be during the next little while:

 

Sun. June 29 - 4:00 to 5:00 PM - Eric & Suzy at Freight & Salvage - FREE ADMISSION! We'll be playing a set as part of the Freight's International Folk Festival, representing the American South part of International. The Royal Hawaiian Ukulele Band plays right before us, at 3, we play from 4 to 5. Stop by, it's totally FREE! More info at Freight & Salvage website

Sat. July 19th, Aux Cajunals at Ashkenaz. It's been a long time since we've played a Cajun dance at Ashkenaz and for this one, we're returning to our original acoustic Aux Cajunals lineup with Eric, Suzy, Agi, and Alan Senauke! Ashkenaz has got one of the best dance floors around and a wonderful old-fashioned barn dance kind of atmosphere. Dance lesson with Diana Castillo at 8, the Aux Cajunals at 9. Admission is $13, $10 for students with ID. Ashkenaz is located at 1317 San Pablo, near Gilman, in Berkeley. All ages welcome, free parking across the street in the REI lot. Ashkenaz website

Thurs. July 24 at 8 PM - the Todalo Shakers at the Mountain View House Concert Series. The Todalo Shakers (Eric & Suzy, W.B. Reid, Frannie Leopold, and Steven Strauss) reunite for a evening of vintage party-down jug band blues! Since Frannie lives in Mendocino, and W.B. lives in Seattle, Washington, we don't get to play together too often but when we do, it's magic. This will be our only public performance for 2008. Daniel's concerts take place in a medium-sized room that was designed specifically for music concerts - it's a wonderful intimate performance space. For info, reservations, directions, etc, please email Concerts@InstantHarmony.com (preferred) or phone (650) 947-9669.

Fri-Sat. Aug. 22-23, Santa Fe (New Mexico) Bluegrass & Old-Time Festival. Eric & Suzy will return to this wonderful small festival in scenic Santa Fe. The old-time component is particularly strong this year, with the Freight Hoppers and the Sandia Hots in addition to Eric & Suzy. For more info, please visit Santa Fe Bluegrass & Old-Time Festival website or phone (707) 542-1894.

Music Camps: We'll both be teaching at week-long music workshops in the Northwest this coming August, but not both at the same one. Suzy will be teaching at the Port Townsend Country Blues Festival; dates are July 27 - August 3, 2008. Eric will be teaching at the second session of the Puget Sound Guitar Workshop which runs from August 9 to August 15.

Thurs-Sun. Sept. 11-14, Berkeley Old Time Music Convention This year's amazing lineup includes one of our musical heroes, Benton Flippen, plus several other great traditional musicians from North Carolina (Paul Brown, Frank Bode, Sheila Kay Adams), Rayna Gellert, Foghorn String Band, the Brandy Snifters (from Minnesota) and many of our other favorite old-time musicians! Visit BOTMC website for more details.

If you are interested in booking Eric & Suzy (with a band, or as a duo) for your party, wedding, or other special occasion, please visit our Weddings and Parties page.
