about

Eric Allen’s self-titled, debut LP, Eric Allen, is a slice of Americana borne of memories, loss, and hope. All the tracks were recorded as entirely acoustic, without drums, electric guitar, or electric bass. These songs were written by Eric during 2018 and 2019, and draw from blues, folk, and outlaw country. The LP includes songs about life on the road (All on Death Row, Holy Rollin’), hope (Night Falls Again), and longing (She Waits). Many tracks, including Rattlesnake Mama and Stillhouse Blues, are influenced by the songwriter’s southern ancestral roots.

This LP is dedicated in three respects: First and foremost to the memory of the artist’s father, Yancey, a musician and factory worker about whom the song 40 Years was written; second to Eric’s sister’s home that burned in the 2018 Malibu fires (which inspired Really Miss); and third to the artist’s adopted home of New York City (which inspired In Me).

Eric Allen《Eric Allen (艾力克・阿兰)》 专辑简介

Eric Allen (艾力克 阿兰)的同名唱片Eric Allen是他的首张专辑,表达他对于故乡美国的深情怀念,内容包含回忆、失去和希望。所有歌曲均用原声乐器录制,未使用鼓、电吉他或电贝司。这些歌曲是Eric 于2018年和2019年创作,形式有布鲁斯、民谣、叛道乡村等。歌曲表现出人在旅途 (All on Death Row, Holy Rollin’), 希冀 (Night Falls Again)和盼望 (She Waits)等情感。大多歌曲,包括Rattlesnake Mama 和 Stillhouse Blues等,深受创作者的家乡--美国南部文化的影响。

这张唱片首先要献给创作者的父亲Yancey,他是一位音乐人和工人,歌曲40 Years 就是对他的回忆。其次献给毁于2018年加利福尼亚大火的Eric 妹妹位于Malibu的房子,它是Really Miss的灵感来源。最后,这张唱片也献给艺术家的第二故乡--纽约(In Me )。
