A glimpse of our show at Lovin' Cup last week. ❤️ I love singing with Eric Carlin. 🥰 It was fun to add some new songs to our set.

I haven't written a song in 2 and a half years. I feel a lot of shame about that. "Songwriting is a muscle. You have to exercise it." "Will my audience get tired of hearing the same old songs at each gig?" "I guess I'm not as talented of a songwriter if I don't write consistently." "Why can't I write when I'm happy?"
Since April, I've felt inspiration building and songs simmering inside me. I still had trouble putting pen to paper. Finally, over this past week, I've started writing again and it's so invigorating. I suspect what may have contributed to my writing hiatus, but that's a song for another time. And I've discovered that I can write when I'm happy. 😉
I'm so looking forward to singing with my duo partner (in life and on stage), Eric Carlin as Pushin' Time for you this Friday at Lovin' Cup. We're practicing some new covers for you. ❤️✌🏼
I’m proud to be a part of this band! It’s fun to play with musicians who are passionate about the music and the sound.
We’ve got a Grateful Dead HALLOWEEN BASH @ Avon Park coming up! 🎃 If you’ve never seen us play, this would be a great show to catch.
We (Eric Carlin's Half-Dead) had a blast playing on the Colonial Belle this past Wednesday! Dead tunes, a fun audience, and a beautiful sunset made for a wonderful night.
Join us tonight at T.J. Ryan’s Pub from 5-8pm!
Singing the music of the Grateful Dead in the woods 🌳…the quintessential environment for Dead music. ☠️🌺 We (Eric Carlin's Half-Dead) had fun playing a private party last night!

Don’t miss Eric Carlin supporting America (The Band) at Concerts at Point of the Bluff on July 2!
Another incredible supporting act will be performing at our venue this season. We are happy to announce Eric Carlin supporting America (The Band) on Sunday, July 2. 🎸
A diverse musician, Dr. Eric Carlin is equally at home with a flat top or Fender Stratocaster as he is with a fine classical guitar. Eric picked up a guitar at the age of 13 and discovered a way to express himself. Based in Rochester, New York, Eric has over 20 years of teaching and performing experience.
With a passion for Bach as well as the blues, Eric fuses his classical training with country, blues, and rock to create a unique sound. Discovering music as a coping mechanism for anxiety and depression, Eric is passionate about sharing his music with others in hopes that they too can find comfort. He is on faculty at Nazareth College and Mansfield University and offers private lessons to budding musicians and advanced musicians alike.
Experience America with support Eric Carlin at Concerts at Point of the Bluff on Sunday, July 2.

A reminder that unfortunately, Eric Carlin's Album Release Show originally scheduled for tonight at Three Heads Brewing, is cancelled due to COVID. Keep an eye out for a rescheduled date!
Stream Eric's new album, "Looking Up From Here" TOMORROW!
I'm so proud of my man, Eric Carlin for sharing these songs with you. "Looking Up From Here" is out this Friday, April 22.
I was honored to sing background vocals on this album, be cowriter on a song, and it's always fun working with 1809 Studios!
My new album, “Looking Up From Here” will be available on all streaming platforms this Friday, April 22. I’m grateful to talented musicians and friends, including 1809 Studios, who helped bring these songs to life.
This collection of songs is unbelievably special to me. They were written during the most difficult, personal, growth-filled period of my life and I am proud to share them with you.
THANK YOU to everyone who came out to Lovin' Cup last night and thank you to my band! After moving back here from Nashville 7 years ago, I wasn’t sure of the future of my songwriting and singing. I’m beyond grateful that God provided me with a beautiful community of musicians and friends who have collaborated with me and helped me along the way. And for a unbelievably supportive audience of friends, family, and community members. This is what I’m meant to do. Thank you for lifting me up along the way. ✌🏼❤️
A special thanks to my family who have shown up at almost every show since 1994 and have always believed in me. And special thanks to my partner, Eric Carlin who inspires me to make my music dreams come true while supporting me along the way.
Woohoo! Thanks Lovin' Cup! I can't wait!

A couple of dreams came true in 2021 and that is an amazing feeling. Dreams that I once felt like I couldn't reach and that I felt like I wasn't good enough to manifest. Releasing my first EP, The In Between (my first ever recorded music) is something I will forever cherish. I'm proud of myself for playing gigs steadily throughout this year, something I haven't been able to do in previous years. Thank you all for being a part of my joy in music this year. Thank you for supporting me, inspiring me, collaborating with me, and listening to the songs. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. ❤
I'm looking forward to more dreams coming true in 2022. Save the date! Celebrate The In Between's first birthday with me and a full band at Lovin' Cup on April 9, 2022. Details to come! ✌🏼
