Eric Kufs & River Man
A Los Angeles singer/songwriter currently living in upstate New York, Eric Kufs is one part crooner, one part protest singer and every part artist. Eric’s time performing in Southern California began years ago in local clubs and venues. With the lyrical bite of an Elvis Costello, the dynamic voice of a Van Morrison, and the passion of a Bruce Springsteen, his prowess eventually led to performances around the world.
As the main songwriter for indie folk band Common Rotation, Kufs has released six full-length albums and recorded with the likes of They Might be Giants and Indigo Girls as well as his own songwriting hero and mentor, renowned singer/songwriter Dan Bern.
In his most recent solo EPs and albums, he has traded in the ironic folk element of past work for a more sincere, soulful 70s pop sound. His current creative work continues to be placed in TV and film. Armed with his guitar and voice, Kufs continues to reach new audiences both with his recordings and his regular performances on his Friday night livestream show, “Until the End of Time” and out in music venues across the country.
