"Eric Gales is the emotive explosive genius of modern Blues guitar."
— BLUES BLAST MAGAZINE
"Guitarist Eric Gales Ascends to the Blues Rock Throne on the Joe Bonamassa Assisted 'Crown'"
— AMERICAN SONGWRITER (2022 Album Review of ‘Crown’)
GRAMMY® Award Nominee & 3x-Blues Music Award-Winning Guitar Legend ERIC GALES' recent album 'Crown' (2022) was Nominated for "Best Contemporary Blues Album" at the 2023 GRAMMY® Awards, and he is the 2022 Blues Music Award-Winner for “Guitar Player of the Year”!
Gales was also been Nominated for the “2023 BB King Entertainer of the Year” which is the prestigious and highly coveted award given to the most outstanding live performer in Blues! Eric is also a 2x-“Blues Rock Artist of the Year” Award-Winner (2019 & 2020). His live performances are mesmerizing!
Eric Gales is a blues firebrand. Over 30 years and 18 albums, his passion for the music and his boundless desire to keep it vital has never waned. Eric continues to reinvigorate the art form with personal revelation in his lyrics and bold stylistic twists in his guitar playing and songwriting.
Since 1991, the Memphis-born guitarist has blazed a path reinvigorating the blues with a virtuosity and rock swagger that have him being heralded as the second coming of Jimi Hendrix. He was a child prodigy with bottomless talent and fierce determination, and at just 16 years-old he released his debut, 'The Eric Gales Band', on Elektra Records. He’s earned high praise by guitarists’ guitarist and household name axe men such as Joe Bonamassa, Carlos Santana, Dave Navarro, and Mark Tremonti. In addition, he has held his own with some of the greatest guitarists in the world, including Carlos Santana at Woodstock 1994, Zakk Wylde, Eric Johnson, and a posse of others as a featured guest touring with the Experience Hendrix Tour.
Eric calls his award-winning 2022 album ‘Crown’. The songs are delivered with clarity and feature Eric’s personal experiences and hope for positive change. In addition, the 16-track collection boasts his finest singing, songwriting, and his signature guitar playing that burns throughout. Produced by Joe Bonamassa and Josh Smith, this is Eric at his most boldly vulnerable, uncompromisingly political, and unflinchingly confident.
“One of the best if not the best guitarist in the world today.”
— JOE BONAMASSA
"Heralded as one of the greatest blues and rock guitarists of his generation...His brilliant, spectacular playing has garnered the respect of generations of guitar fans as well as peers like Eric Johnson, Joe Bonamassa, Dave Navarro, Gary Clark Jr. and Zakk Wylde, as well as his own heroes, such as Carlos Santana who says, “Eric is absolutely incredible.”
— GUITAR WORLD
"Eric Gales Injects Modern Blues with Rock and Funk on ‘Crown’...you can’t help but groove to it."
— GLIDE MAGAZINE (2022 Album Review of ‘Crown’)
"It may be Gales’ best effort to date."
— BLUES ROCK REVIEW (2022 Album Review of ‘Crown’)
"And I remember on this last tour me and Myles were on the bus looking up clips and we ran into some Eric Gales clips and we were just like, 'This guy could be the best player on Earth.”
— MARK TREMONTI
