Paul Erickson

Intro

Amateur: One who engages in a pursuit, study, science or a sport (or music) as a pastime rather than a profession....

Paul has been a guitarist for more than 50 years. The last decade has been spent pursuing the study of classical guitar music. Some things are done just for the daily practice and joy that can be had and shared with others.

If you live in Everett, Washington, it's possible you might have heard Paul at a park, a nursing home, a senior home, a farmers market, or community event. While Paul no longer pursues paid performances, he will play in the Everett community occasionally at open mics and neighborhood parks.

Work

Paul's work has included studying classical composers, learning to perform music by famous composers, and scoring and recording new compositions in classical styles of Etudes, Waltzes and Sonatas.

Some of his favorite composers include J.S. Bach, Matteo Carcassi, and Francisco Tarrega. Classical Guitarsts have contemporary heros too. Not Eddie Van Halen or Jimi Hendrix, but names like John Williams, Andre Segovia, and Julian Bream. If you'd like to hear Paul's work, it can be found on most major streaming services.

About

Paul lives in Everett, Washington and still practices the guitar most every day. While he is moving towards retirement, he still enjoys playing the guitar and composing music.
