Erick Baker is an Emmy Award-winning folk soul singer-songwriter from Knoxville, Tennessee, who has spent nearly two decades turning the poetry of everyday life into soulful Americana songs that feel like your own.

He didn’t pick up a guitar until after college, but what began as a late start quickly grew into something much deeper. Drawn from real life, his songs speak to the joys and struggles that connect us all, blending folk, rock, country, and soul into something distinctly his own. The result is music that feels lived-in, honest, and deeply human.

Known for his powerful live performances and a voice that hits you right in the chest, he’s shared the stage with John Legend, Brandi Carlile, Grace Potter, the Goo Goo Dolls, and rock legends Heart, rising from the corners of smoky dive bars to iconic stages like Nashville’s Ryman Auditorium.

Asheville’s Mountain Xpress has called him a “heart-on-his-sleeve troubadour” with “a smoke and whiskey tenor full of range and emotion,” while The Daily Times wrote that “Baker has built a career out of peeling back the skin and bones that surround his beating heart…to watch him perform is to witness a man who truly believes in what he’s doing.”

Since his 2008 debut, Baker has released eight albums and earned national recognition not only for his music, but also as a children’s book author and host of the PBS travel series Tennessee Valley Uncharted, celebrating his Southern roots.

With his upcoming studio album Beautiful Life arriving in early 2027, he takes a defining step forward in both his songwriting and sound, while continuing to make music that helps people feel seen, understood, and a little less alone.
