FOLK: Modern Folk, FOLK: Gentle
Details:
Eric Cooper is Richard Thompson meets Nick Drake, a combination of dark, melancholic, insular moods and deft finger-style guitar skill. The atmosphere of his music, while emcompassed by a sort of gloominess, has touches of poignant and even cathartic moods. It''s the bleak sincerity that Eric passionately expresses in his music, and the beautiful acoustic guitar sound which ultimately carries each song through.
Brood has a pretty self-explanatory title. It is just that…brooding. In a sense, this album is carried by the title track, which comes in at a whopping 17 minutes! It is definitely a bold undertaking on the part of Eric, being that he is armed with only an acoustic guitar and his breathy voice, but this only fuels the fire of his epic-themed debut.
