About Me

Loves playing Jazz Guitar

A guitarist from the Philadelphia area, Erik's releases of guitar based Jazz & Blues instrumentals is described as relaxing background music for your life. With his new band, The Erik Lamberth Jazz Quartet, they recently released the jazz album, Opportunity. He started on saxophone at age 10, and within a few years was performing original arrangements from the Glen Miller Orchestra. A guitarist for nearly 30 years, he has performed with numerous ensembles, including The Haverford College Jazz Ensemble (Guitar and Saxophone) and the Rock 'n Blues Band Roadrunner. He has also played with several ensembles while studying Guitar and Music Production at the Berklee College of Music. His CD's are Candlewood Blues, Three Guitars, and the new Jazz Quartet release, Opportunity. The band, The Erik Lamberth Jazz Quartet, was originally the concept of Seattle producer Cyrus Rhoads after hearing Erik’s solo album, Three Guitars. The idea was to expand the jazz songs into a full length jazz CD with excellent musicians. As fate would have it, there were outstanding players locally. Vince Ryan, Tom Wyatt, and, Leif Dunn, along with Erik, recorded the first CD from the Erik Lamberth Jazz Quartet, Opportunity. Recently, Harry Johnson has taken over duties on Bass, and now the band finds itself as an all Advent Lutheran Church band. - See more at: http://www.eriklamberth.com/jazz_quartet/#sthash.UjT1fRDB.dpuf
