Eric Arn





American-born guitarist Eric Arn has mined the nether regions of avant-rock, free improv, drone and psychedelia with the bands Crystalized Movements in the 1980s and Primordial Undermind over the last three decades. He has also released 10 albums of wide-ranging solo and duo improvisation and experimentation, and performs live throughout Europe and North America.

“Eric moves through vast style fields with absolute surety. He can generate massive drone-throbs that would make even that old crank Fahey smile. He can play with sound sheets in a way that moves even deeper into experimental realms. He can play acoustic fantasia sprawls that would have made Fahey swear... One of our fave guitar wranglers. Somewhere between Renbourn & Chadbourne.” - Byron Coley

"At times, Eric sounds like a cross between Django Reinhardt and Derek Bailey, and at other times, he's forging his own brand of Americana (via Austria), with Eastern, psych, and experimental influences, echoing the sounds of John Fahey, John Martyn, and Popol Vuh. Ranking right up there with releases by contemporaries such as Richard Bishop, Jack Rose, David Grubbs, Daniel Bachman, and Rob Noyes.” - Joe Tunis, Carbon Records.
