Eric Long performed at our wedding last week. He was fantastic. He is a great communicator and easy to talk to. He showed up on time and was ready to go once the wedding started. He set a perfect tone for our wedding with a wonderful set including many of our favorites. We loved his playing and we received many compliments on the music from our guests. I would strongly recommend Eric for any event and look forward to working with him again.
Eric played a mix of originals and classics for our wedding reception. He is incredibly talented, professional, and an overall joy to work with. My fiancé and I were already fans (he's a regular in our Spotify rotation), but our guests were equally impressed and kept mentioning how great the music was. Highly recommended!
Eric was amazing to work with. He communicated well and made the whole process very easy. We had a group of about 70 people, and everyone loved him. Great vocals, great guitar playing and great energy. If we ever need live music again, I will definitely be reaching out to him!
Thank you for making our event so special.
Eric delivered a great performance and easy to work with!
Truly, don’t wait another moment to book Eric for next gathering. He provided just the right vibe for our backyard wedding and his music is awesome. On top of it all, he was so communicative and helpful in the planning process. Next level!
Eric came to our rescue when changing wedding plans multiple times in a pandemic. We simply wanted a live musician to play for us some of our favorite songs as we walked down and up the aisle of our special day and he was such a pleasure to work with! He learned a specific arrangement I had sent him for the big day and my husband and I just couldn't be happier with the way every detail played out. Would highly recommend!! Cannot wait to see him playing his own music around town soon!
Eric was a joy to work with!!! He was quick to respond and flexible, which is necessary right now. I hired him for my small backyard wedding. He was easy to talk with and made the whole process very easy. His music is great! Highly recommend him for any event!
Eric was lovely to work with! Very professional, has a great voice and nice mellow music!
Response from Eric Long:
Thanks Chantelle!
Eric was just a treat to work with! He showed up right on time, set up and provided the perfect acoustics for our party. Honestly if I had my druthers this would have been a show where we could just listen to his songs! He is super talented- original music that is uplifting and comforting. He also sang a special song for my mom that she loves...I doubt he will be available for this kind of entertainment long...
Eric is an extremely talented musician/vocalist and very professional. We will use Eric every time we are in the area and just hope he is available.

Eric took time to get to know us in advance of the wedding to ensure he would be able add exactly what we were looking for to our big day. Our guest were so impressed with his perforamance.

It was an absolute pleasure playing for you. Thanks so much for allowing me to play a part in your wedding. Wishing you the happiest of days!
Eric is a fabulous guitarist! He has helped us out at multiple corporate events and has been adored by our guests. He's a pleasure to work with and we look forward to each opportunity we have to hire him!
Eric was absolutely incredible! He played guitar and sang for our wedding happy hour, and it completely gave that portion of our wedding the vibe we wanted — romantic yet fun, entertaining yet soft. His voice is truly one of a kind, and still to this day, people tell us how much they enjoyed him! He is also very kind, easy to work with, and accommodating. I feel so grateful to have had him at our wedding, and know you will, too. He is above and beyond :)
Eric was excellent. His voice is amazing and he was super nice and great to work with. I highly recommend him!

I can play instrumental acoustic background music or singalong favorites from roots and folk music to blues and rock and roll. Depending on your needs I can provide upbeat sets, but my specialty is laid back Americana that is perfect for cocktail hours & events of all size.
Singer-songwriter Eric Long’s music is fundamentally folk, with deep ties to early country, roots and blues music. His songs pull from the same cloth as Jerry Jeff Walker, John Hartford and Jimmy Buffet alike: sometimes funny, often rich with depth, and always entertaining. NPR’s All Songs Considered has hailed his voice as carrying a “timeless timbre that sounds well traveled, self-reflective and pure,” while Relix called his last LP “easy to listen to and easy to love.”
"His work resides at the heart of what Woody Guthrie was talking about when he asked and answered whose land this is. By listening to him, one gets the sense that he knows you, that he’s heard your stories and felt your struggles and understands your highs and your lows. He, like so much else, was made to be shared, made to be cherished, made for you and me." - For the Folks
Eric has opened for Grammy winning roots artist Fantastic Negrito as well as acoustic and country music greats Doug MacLeod, Guy Davis and Josh Turner.
