Eric Schwartz (The Kennedy Center)

Eric Schwartz

A degree in biology from Tufts University and a former career as a touring bilingual actor has furnished singer/songwriter Eric Schwartz with a deftly analytical mind, an awesome imagination, and a soul which thrives in the spotlight. Piano was his first instrument. After studying guitar in Madrid, he spent a year performing on the streets and in the cafes of Europe. He then moved to Greenwich Village and quickly became a staple on the Village bar scene for five years as he honed his craft and began drawing attention from some of the world’s toughest audiences. Schwartz has composed a score for a musical adaptation of Beowulf, performed in showcases at the Falcon Ridge and Kerrville festivals, and been selected for a formal showcase at Northeast Folk Alliance and Kerrville’s main stage.
