The New Project From Ernie Hendrickson"Down The Road""Groundbreaking" - David C. Eldredge, Illinois Entertainer "Surely a cutting-edge singer/songwriter of tomorrow, Ernie Hendrickson lives enough in the past to keep what Bob Dylan, James Taylor and Kris Kristofferson have done alive and thriving for generations." - Jim Hagerty, Rock River Times "Whether exploring tribal beats or graceful homegrown country hymnals, E. Hendrickson stretches the song-writing pallet. He is drawing influences from Gram Parsons' Burrito Brothers, straight through the heart of the America's Blues tradition." - Martin Halo, JamBase "Dark and pretty songs. Ernie Hendrickson is finding a niche in the indie folk Americana segment." - Hans Werksman, Here comes the Flood, The Netherlands Listen to samples here. |

About Ernie Hendrickson |
|
| Long before he
picked up his guitar and took the ride down Highway 90 from Rockford to
Chicago, Ernie Hendrickson has been crafting songs straight from the heart
of Middle America. With a songwriting style that’s as natural as a
summer breeze, Hendrickson’s venture into the realm of acoustic blues,
bluegrass, folk, and pop is a seamless transition.
Born in Cuba City, WI, but raised in Rockford, IL, Ernie Hendrickson
is no stranger to the music scene. At an age when most kids are preoccupied
with obtaining a driver’s license, he was making a name for himself
in the area’s regional music scene. Since the age of 16, he has
hit the road many times over, playing in a variety of bands throughout
Illinois. Now, at the age of 30, Hendrickson has the musical resume of
a seasoned veteran. Having opened and shared the same stage with artists
such as Jon Scofield, Victor Wooten, Leftover Salmon, Tim Reynolds, Jerry
Garcia Band, and Particle, along with playing the most prestigious of
venues and festivals, Ernie Hendrickson has the references and experience
to back it up. |
