Armed with naught but an accordion, a pedal board, and an unmistakable, roaring baritone, Eric McM brings together a bizarre variety of influences into an almost vaudevillian one-man spectacle that is every bit as frightening and engaging as it is vulnerable and intimate.
Having spent the last 15 years writing, recording, and touring the US with bands Ford Theatre Reunion, Caravan Discordia, and as a solo act, Eric is no stranger to the road. Playing endlessly diverse stages; from house shows and dive bars, to clubs and theaters, he has shared bills with such acts as The Dresden Dolls, The Goddamn Gallows, Faun Fables, Lung, and endless others. He’s always been there, lurking, just at the edges of the “underground”, trying to keep it from taking itself too seriously.
His current band, Caravan Discordia (described as ‘a southern-gothic fairytale carnival that is equal parts horror and whimsy’), have their debut album and follow-up single available now on Bandcamp, and all major streaming platforms.
See Eric on Thursday, March 14!
