The album features a stellar line-up of musicians headed up by Bonnie
Raitt (slide guitar on “If Our Hearts Ain’t In It”) and including a duet
(“Conversation”) with Ruthie Foster. The Nashville band included producer Glen
Scott on keyboards and backing vocals, Tommy Sims (Bruce Springsteen, Kelly
Clarkson, Eric Clapton) on guitar, bass and backing vocals, Lemar Carter on
drums (Carrie Underwood, Joss Stone, India.Arie) and other Nashville musical
luminaries.
Eric describes his latest creation as follows “My new album Get Onboard is,
without a doubt one of the most exciting projects of my career. It’s a further
exploration into the place where blues meets gospel and soul.”
