“Inspiration and love goes into everything we do,” said Eric Lambert, as he prepares to leave a lasting impression on the Yonder Mountain String Band audience on Saturday, August 30 in Norfolk, VA. Eric Lambert & Friends join Yonder for a special performance at The NorVa Theatre Labor Day weekend near the shores of Virginia Beach.

“I'm really looking forward to opening for Yonder Mountain String Band and sharing our Americana music with Kinfolk, and people of Norfolk,” said Eric. The band is putting fun at the forefront and have a few cool things up their sleeves. “We'll play a mix of originals and covers, and are planning something special for the occasion,” Eric revealed.

Eric Lambert & Friends are thrilled to be meeting up with Yonder Mountain String Band on the east coast over the holiday weekend. “We love what Yonder does and are very supportive of them. We're grateful they brought us on board for the show,” said Eric. “This is an amazing opportunity for us to take our music to a bigger stage and a bigger audience. I've never performed in Norfolk or at The NorVa Theatre. I can't wait!”

The stop in Norfolk is a part of Yonder’s east coast run, which includes visits to Pennsylvania, Maryland, North Carolina, and Virginia. They will feature Jake Jolliff on mandolin for this show, and have the talented Jerry Douglas and Allie Kral joining them for some other shows.

“I hope the audience is excited and energized by our performance,” shared Eric, “and feel the fun, passion, and sincerity we put into our music and performance,” he concluded. Eric Lambert & Friends kick off the show at 8 pm with an explosive performance that will get the celebration started in fierce flatpicking style!
