Synopsis
Album Description Skimming is the successful culmination of a three year struggle. After a difficult label experience, Mike turned his back on the biz and embarked on the classic American journey of rediscovery - he hit the road. Touring incessantly (and alone) for two years, he rediscovered what he was: a songwriter, a wry social observer, and above all, an entertainer. He wrote the eleven songs that make up this album, built a grassroots fan base, and used his touring proceeds to make this record. Simultaneously paying tribute to and defying the singer/songwriter model, Mike Errico is the 21st century troubadour. Enhanced CD includes photos from the road (all taken by Mike), a studio diary, 4 bonus tracks and a rotating bonus MP3. Similarly Requested CDs

CD ReviewsExcellent disc! 09/24/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "This disc rocks! This artist continues to mature. There isn't a weak track. From the title track of "Skimming" to "Strawberry Song" - this is Mike's strongest yet. The full band hand-picked for this cd is perfect. Neal Evans of Soulive adds a great mix with the keys.Buy this CD!" A new direction for Mike Errico 11/30/2003 (5 out of 5 stars) "The new CD takes off in a new direction. Instead of the folk instrumentation of his previous work, we find a full rock band. Much of the energy of Mike's recent live CD is present in the studio product. If you've followed Mike Errico you will be pleased, if you haven't you will be in for a treat."
