Eric Gales may be new to you, but he has been hitting hard and turning up the guitar on the music scene for a long time now. He’s been a part of the “Experience Hendrix” tour, performed with acclaimed guitarists like Carlos Santana and Eric Johnson, plus fronted his own band for several years. I collected a few videos from his career that highlight the rockin’ show he puts on and his skills on the guitar. The guy sounds good and definitely knows how to play, plus he plays some really cool chords and solos. I hope you dig these performances as much as I did!
Santana brought Eric Gales out on stage at Woodstock ’94 to a sold out crowd and he killed it. Check out his performance at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JGzf6Dk17k.

Just a couple of years ago, Eric Gales sat in with a good band at B.B. King’s in Memphis, TN to play a little “Texas Flood.” Check out his guest appearance at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AJR5dS0WA48.

Lastly, I thought it would be cool to hear from Gales’ own band with one of his songs called “Make It There.” Enjoy it here at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6q-1KSW4BiM.
