Eric Schoenberg began his love affair with the guitar in 1959. He started teaching in the early sixties and before long, became the second-half of a duo with his cousin, Dave Laibman, helping Dave to perform his amazing, ground-breaking arrangement of classical ragtime.
Their album, Contemporary Ragtime Guitar, on Folkways Records, is considered a classic and remains a benchmark for today's fingerstyle players. In the early Seventies, Eric began touring the United States, Europe and Japan, playing his innovative arrangements of the classical rags, traditional folk and Celtic music, the blues, country, and The Beatles, and making a lasting contribution to the fingerstyle repertoire. Considered a world renown luthier and an expert in vintage instruments, his guitar shop in Tiburon, appraises old Martins, Gibsons, Stellas and the like in between running a concert series. Eric Schoenberg Guitars was recently called one of the "10 Best in the U.S." as a place to learn about vintage guitars. We are fortunate to have Eric Schoenberg on the Floating Records Label and hope that you enjoy this new release of the album, Acoustic Guitar. This album is a rare find that was only available on vinyl until now... |

FELSEN We have some seriously good music here. "Felsen's music is both smart and sexy and is always catchy. It demands repeated listening. This is for Alt Rock fans of Wilco, Radiohead, the Flaming Lips, Beck AND fans of the classic sound of Pink Floyd, the Beach Boys and the Beatles." We are proud to have Felsen's CD on Floating Records, available NOW for download. And see them LIVE on March 8th at The Seahorse in Sausalito. Opening for them is Slow Cooked Surprise with sultry Amy Nordstrom on the vocals. And, of course, there is always a surprise! |
