Hi guys, one quick shameless plug.. I have a new album coming out, exactly six years to the day of my last one! (April 2nd, 2019)

This one is an EP, and it features a couple of very cool powerpop guests, namely:
Mike Viola (Candy Butchers, The Major Labels, the guy who wrote/sang the single from the Tom Hanks movie 'That Thing You Do')
Roger Joseph Manning Jr (Jellyfish, Beck, Imperial Drag, TV Eyes, Moog Cookbook)

Pre-order page is here:
http://www.musicglue.com/eric-barao

I'll be sure and share a track once it comes out.. right now it's going through mixing/mastering, but the tracks I've gotten back so far are sounding really fantastic!

Pedals- yeah I used a few, all DIY. Mostly a dirt or two, a compressor, maybe my BYOC tremolo and an echoplex preamp boost.
Oh and hey, there's a vacuum tube and a transistor on the cover art!

Cheers, Eric

Awesome! He wrote or co-wrote a lot of the songs from one of my favorite movies! Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story!

Looking forward to the tracks!

It was fun, but I had to have a couple shots of Rye whiskey before I was ready for some dance moves :lol:

Here's a lyric video for the title track of the album (no dancing):
