Rick Eberle Band
Rick Eberle Band
"With an alt rock flavor that fans of Third Eye Blind or Foo Fighters would dig on one track, to a sugary pop-rock sensibility in the vein of Fountains of Wayne or Barenaked Ladies on another, Rick Eberle has proven himself to be a unique and versatile singer, songwriter and guitarist on both ends of the musical spectrum. Influenced by a wide variety of artists from The Beatles and Elvis Costello, to Gavin DeGraw and Hozier, Eberle consistently delivers hard hitting, powerful riffs interwoven with melodic vocals and insightful, introspective lyrics. Each listen is an aural adventure."
