GUITARIST & COMPOSER


Iam Eric, I studied the Degree in Classical Guitar at the Superior School of Music of the INBA (National Institute of Fine Arts of Mexico). In 2015, I studied the Master in Classical Guitar at the Hanns Eisler School of Music in Berlin, Germany.

Along with my classical training, I belong to several projects of contemporary music, free jazz, free improvisation and Latin American music. Currently living in Berlin with parallel projects in Mexico City and Europe.

"Acerca de México"

2019



The earth is the memory of man. In its breast repose our memories, nostalgia germinates and time, embalmed, awaits the hand that will reveal its past. In its mysterious depths, metals and the departed mature equally under the shelter of silence. A shroud of history, a funeral sheet of vanity, the earth is also the foothold of imagination for those artists who, like Gustavo Camacho and Eric Trejo, know that heaven is inaccessible to those who do not sink their roots in it.

Gustavo Camacho and Eric Trejo have decided to leave in this recording a trace that will allow them to understand the color of their future nostalgia, as well as a testimony of their perennial friendship and constant love for their roots.
