Is that a pocket full of kryptonite or are you just happy to see me? This time, the third in a recurring series we call “Performances”, and what a performer he is! A guitarist whose talents and hits would land him on the cover of Rolling Stone (Jan 1993), and on stages all over North America to this day. Joining Jeff Woods in-studio, solo, for a chat and impassioned acoustic performances, it's Spin Doctors guitarist Eric Schenkman. We're going back to a select session from March 2019 at Wild Woods Blue Studio, from which we've pulled out set-ups and stories, preceding three killer performances including two spirited originals: Who Shot John, and Agent Orange Blues (guess who that's about!?), and one classic cover: Statesboro Blues, in a loving nod to the Allman Brothers and the Blind Willie McTell song of 1928.

There are two guitarists that made me the musician I am today, Eric Schenkman is one of those cats! I am beyond thrilled to be able to sit down and have a conversation with my hero. We'll get deep in the Spin Doctors world, of course, but we'll also talk about his solo record "Who Shot John?"and his life as a jamband guitarist turned pop star! Oh, and you know I'll have some super nerdy gear questions - his tone is always immaculate. Grab a comfy chair and come hang with us! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
