Erik Flores is a singer songwriter from the Texas hill country whose solo music reflects exactly that. Texas hill country. His career up to this point has been varied and exciting, starting in Austin,TX with projects ranging from Rock n Roll to Folk to Conjunto and Salsa and eventually landing him in Los Angeles for a 10yr stretch where he reconnected with his love of Americana/Country music. After founding the band Fairbanks & the Lonesome Light, gaining some notoriety and recording 2 albums he returned home to Texas and settled down in Driftwood where he writes and records the songs that will be the coming chapters of his career. His current band Fairbanks & the Lonesome Light is shared with singer/writer Amelia Rose Logan. It is a collection of songs written in two part harmony and built on a solid foundation of Indie Folk/Americana music. They drawn from the same traditions that Jeff Tweedy, The Band, Neil Young, Gillian Welch and others seem to lean toward. Erik’s solo performances pull from this catalogue but are peppered with cover songs that speak more to his classic Texas influences including Guy Clark, Lyle Lovett, Townes Van Zandt, Blaze Foley, Willie Nelson and other similar artists. You can find Erik playing locally with Fairbanks & the Lonesome Light and performing solo in and around Central Texas when he’s not further out on the road.
