Singer/Songwriter with a unique perspective
A native New Yorker, I've been living in the Boston area for many years. Originally, I took up guitar to sing covers. I'd jam whenever possible: especially with the "Thursday Night Group", at bluegrass festivals and at folk-music gatherings. Occasionally, I'd even write my own tunes. Now, my emphaisis has shifted toward writing my own songs and performing them, in the Boston region for the most part. Life is an ever-fascinating circus of activity and emotions. My songs are an outlet to observe and comment, but hopefully, not to judge (some exceptions apply).

The mark of a good CD is that you can remember what stretch of highway you were on when you heard a given song. I was on Interstate 80 in Pennsylvania, at about mile 279, when I first heard "River Wash Away."

...versatile musical performer Rich Eilbert...whose melodies and lyrics illuminate the corners of life, with all of its pleasures, pains, human foibles and triumphs.

I love this album! I was drawn in from the very beginning by the upbeat “Come On In” – a great tune wth superb instrumentation ...His love of music is always apparent! All of the instruments and vocal harmonies fit perfectly! The album has a very live feel to it, as if everyone was right in the room.
-- Ellen Schmidt

production on the whole CD, really great sound and songs!
