Multi-talented, an amazing voice, and a great dude all around. Erik Rico is definitely the homie. And though for the longest time I only knew him through random runs to the Indian buffet in Emeryville, when I finally caught his live performance in Oakland earlier this year I was floored.
In The Reworks Project, Erik takes tracks from our favorites and adds his unique soulful bounce to it. Check out his rework of Stevie Wonder’s “Too High.”
Now, if you’re covering Stevie, Prince, Sade, James, Al, and Marvin all in one EP, you better not be effing around. Erik doesn’t take this matter lightly, and manages to completely reinvent some classics.
