SUMMARY:Eric Hardiman
DESCRIPTION:Eric’s passion for music\, and the guitar\, started in elementary school where his Dream Job assignment included: musician\, guitar player\, rock star\, music teacher… and astronaut. Since ’91 Eric has been pursuing those passions relentlessly (except for the space stuff).  Starting with his mom’s guitar\, taking lessons from family friends and then professionally\, to teaching guitar by age 13\, playing in bands\, writing songs and getting years of education\, Eric’s goals were cemented in his mind. \nA student of many forms of music\, but always passionate about his rock\, Eric studied studied music all his life.  While attending GIT in Hollywood and doing music degrees at Dalhousie University\, Eric got to explore so many opportunities outside of just playing.  Now Eric continues to play regularly with multiple acts\, is a freelance guitarist\, and also owns dB Music Centre which is a school he opened in 2015.   \nNo stranger to hard work after 28+ years pursuing his dreams\, Eric is now putting his best foot forward having released his first solo album\, To All The Things That Begin And End\, which is available on here in lossless format\, Apple Music\, Spotify\, and Google Music.  To All The Things… is the culmination of musical and life experiences Eric has had as well as a project that heart and soul have been poured into.  Following in the footsteps of his idols\, this new album is an instrumental rock album drawing on the the influences of Steve Van\, Joe Satriani\, Eric Johnson\, Eddie Van Halen\, John Petrucci\, and other virtuoso players

SUMMARY:Garrett Mason
DESCRIPTION:Garrett Mason is a true bluesman at heart. He was raised in Truro\, Nova Scotia by his mother Pam\, and father\, veteran Canadian Bluesman Dutch Mason. His quest to become a blues musician started at a very early age; being surrounded by music blues music\, Garrett’s favorite tapes at 3 years old were Canned Heat and Buddy Rich. What really sealed the deal for Garrett to become a blues guitarist came after watching a video of Stevie Ray Vaughn “Live At the El Mocambo” – he was hooked. \nHis dad\, Dutch Mason\, stopped playing guitar before Garrett was born due to crippling arthritis in his hands. Although he was not able to teach his son to play\, he has certainly been able to teach Garrett the structure of the Blues and to influence him about the resulting sound. Surrounded by his father’s peers\, Garrett has had the benefit of hearing and learning from a wide variety of musical talent. The late Rick Jeffery was a great inspiration to Garrett; they would talk and play for hours together. Rick once said “Garrett is the only guitar player I know that can play Albert Collins’ style down to a T”. The combination of his father’s advice\, Jeffery’s guidance and his own natural talents provide that special brew for Garrett to become the musical influence he is destined to be. \nGarrett would be the first to tell you that riding the coat tails of others won’t take you very far in this business\, but striving to be truly original is the secret to longevity and lasting success. Garrett launched his debut CD I’m Just a Man at the 2004 Harvest Jazz and Blues festival in Fredericton\, New Brunswick to a sold out crowd. \nThis debut CD features Garrett’s talent for strong original songs\, a voice that is reminiscent of a veteran performer and his extraordinary aptitude for playing electric guitar. Garrett’s original talent was awarded in 2005 when he received a Juno for Best Blues Album. Garrett Mason is poised to be one of the brightest stars to emerge from the East Coast Blues scene in years. \nGarrett’s band released their sophomore album Love and Sound in July 2008 which was nominated for a Juno Award. The album won Blues Artist/Group Recording of the Year at the 2009 Music Nova Scotia and Industry Awards.
