ERIC HAGEN is a soulful country artist whose songs are brilliantly "challenging and beautiful"

Text us about this show.Eric Hagen is more than a country artist. He writes and records songs that are country on the surface, but underneath there's a whole lot of soul. The musics of the south—country, soul, gospel, blues—tend to blend with each other very well and Eric has tapped into that. On top of the soulful foundation he lays, the lyrics of his songs are stories and well worth a good listen. He takes a less-is-more approach to recording so his listeners don't just hear whatever he can pack into his songs but rather listen to the stories put to music that is emotionally stirring. A review by Americana UK once said his music is "emotionally challenging and beautiful," a statement that couldn't be any more true.
