Eric Steckel in concert

SLPhotography · Aug 5, 2013

On Friday night, I was in Nazareth, PA for Musikfest. There was a blues guitarist up there by the name of Eric Steckel and he was excellent! I got some pics and was looking for some feedback. I know its a lot of pics to post for feedback so I will number them so people can put a number and their comment/suggestion. All shots taken with my Nikkor 55-200mm lens. The last few are from earlier in the day. Thanks in advance for all the feedback.

Diggin' the concert photos, but I wanted to comment on Eric Steckel. He is another blistering blues prodigy much like Shuggie Otis who started out in his young teens that really doesn't have national recognition. If anybody seeing this thread and loves the blues, please do yourself a favor and check this guy out.

For those that never heard of Shuggie either, google him too. His father was Johnny Otis.

Thanks. Yea, I put them on my Facebook and Instagram account and he saw them and reached out to say thanks. I was blown away and I realized he really isn't all that noticed all that much and he is an amazing artist. I can second that, anyone who listens to blues or even just good guitarists NEEDS to check this guy out. He has nowhere near a big enough following, that he deserves. Started at age 16 at Musikfest in Bethlehem, PA (his hometown) and still going strong. After he comes off the stage down to talk to all the locals and then follows up after the show like he did with my pictures and a tweet I posted about him. Really great guy and a fantastic artist.
