Eric Byak

After a decade as an in-demand, behind the scenes L.A. studio cat who programmed arranged and played in countless TV and film projects, master guitarist/sythesist Eric Byak has turned his talents in an ambitious new direction.
Eric can now be found center stage as the creative force in The Eric Byak Project, his stellar new group which is currently touring in support of his new CD, Journey of the Heart, on ERB Records
More than two years in the making, Journey is a stylish fusion of smooth jazz and rock elements. Each track on all the instrumental CD features Eric's seductive guitar work seamlessly interwoven with classic jazz, breezy funk, and sensuous Brazilian rhythms.
Joining Eric is a tight ensemble of L.A. session and touring

aces, including Frank Briggs (Atlantic Star) on Drums, Hans Zhermuhlen (Air Supply, Frank Gambale) on keyboards, bassist Baba Elefante (Brandon Fields), George Shelby (Sheena Eaton, Larry Carlton) on sax, and percussionists M.B. Gordy and Gabriel Falcon (Neil Diamond, John Tesh, Aaron Neville)..
On live dates, their repertoire includes tunes from the CD as well as romantically charged interpretations of jazz standards, r & b favorites, and pop classics.
