Eric Yaremko
Edmonton born Eric Yaremko set down his roots in the music scene with his first public performance at a local music festival in the summer of 2016. Since then he has grown as a singer and performer, delivering his soulful versions of well known hits from beloved artists like Stevie Nicks and Bruce Springsteen, as well as tunes written by local songwriters. Thriving as an interpreter, his renditions are opulent to the point of songs often being mistaken for originals - Eric puts himself in the shoes of the songwriter and chooses each and every note with care to illuminate the essence of the song - sometimes uncovering facets that were unseen even by songwriters themselves.
