Erik Whittaker Iowa City, Iowa
Erik Whittaker has written and performed music in many Iowa bands including The Old Scratch Revival Singers, Peanut Ricky,
and Los Voltage.
The sound of Erik's work is influenced by Roy Orbison, Julee Cruise, Bo Diddley, PJ Harvey, Angelo Badalamenti, and Duane Eddy-resulting in reverb-drenched, ballads, slinky shape-shifting blues dirges and maybe a fun little barn burner here and there.
