Dear Eric,

We thank you deeply for your wonderful music. It was the perfect ingredient for our magical day last June 25th. Many people complimented you to us, so it wasnÕt only the two of us who noticed! You have a special gift. Thank you for sharing it with us. Please use us as a reference!

sincerely, Elizabeth Ross and Jason Del Porto (Brighton, MA)

Dear Eric,

Just a short note to express our sincere appreciation for your musical contribution to our familyÕs joyous wedding celebration at the Duck Inn.

In just the short meeting with us you were able to capture the essence of what we hoped to achieve musically on this special day.

WeÕve added your recent CD to our collection and it will always serve as a reminder of the music you shared with us on that day.

Again, our thanks - sincerely, Sandra Fisher (Braintree, MA)

Eric Johnson provided the perfect music to match the atmosphere of our wedding reception. The entire process from scheduling to picking the type of music to be played went smoothly and could not have been any easier.

Eric was fabulous. He made demos for me so that I would have an idea of my ceremony. He took control of the situation with very little instruction and in general made me feel that the one thing I didnÕt have to worry about was the music. His performance even in the rain was perfect and his musical selections were better than I had even hoped for. I will definitely be using Eric again on future occasions.

It is my pleasure to write a recommendation to you.

Amid the chaos of planning my wedding, I never found the time to meet you in person but I can say with confidence that you are a true professional. Your performance was wonderful. It really did make my ceremony unique in true Vineyard style. Your sound and style are so perfectly suited for Vineyard weddings.

I picked out a song from your sample CD that was beautiful, but must admit that I was a bit unsure - without hearing you in person - if you would sound as good live. Well, you were in fact equally as wonderful on that day. Music is a great way to cue the procession down the aisle. The use of music truly sets the tone for the day.

For me, music is so associative, and I am glad that I can pop in your CD 10 years from now and recreate my wedding in my imagination and in my heart!

Thank you. - Leslie Belkner (NY, NY)

To whom it may concern,

I am writing to recommend the solo guitar and guitar duo services of Eric Johnson. For the past two years Eric has been a featured musician on our roster. We have sent Eric to play music at over 50 private parties and he has always done a wonderful job for us. In addition he has played a steady engagement for the past year, four days a week, in the lounge at the Boston Harbor Hotel. His musicianship and professionalism have made him a valuable member of our team, and we are sorry to see that he is moving to New York.

Sincerely,
Bert Seager

... I can imagine Johnson being the best thing on most commercial Jazz stations.
... his willingness to allow his rhythm section the freedom to play, and play it does with a nice swinging, yet always danceable looseness. And he takes advantage of that swing with some sashaying lines. His use of Luciana Souza's vocals is reminiscent of Corea's Return to Forever and Gondwanaland evokes early Weather Report. Here on Waiting For The Wind Johnson dares to engage in some collective improv with saxophonist Carl Clements.
This is proof that accessible Jazz need not be mindless.
