Eric Ginsberg was not raised by wolves. He never wrestled a grizzly bear or saved the world from imminent destruction. However, he does manage to churn elation and heartbreak into powerfully relatable, cleverly-worded, crowd-pleasingly catchy songs.

With his catalog of intermittently upbeat and somber pop/rock songs, more infectiously catchy than a sailor on shore leave, Eric Ginsberg has performed at colleges (Rutgers, Quinnipiac, Monmouth, Fairleigh Dickinson, Brookdale…), Cafe’s, Clubs and Bars (NJ, NY, CT, PA, FL, CA, NC). When not on tour (solo, or with The New Originals), Ginsberg can be found in and around his native NJ, honing his stage show, trying out new material, and generally gigging around.

A 2007 Asbury Music Award nominee and 2006 Red Bank Music Community Award-winner, Ginsberg brings high energy, good times, and his own eclectic brand of rock, so laden with hooks that you’ll still be singing in the shower the next morning.

The Aquarian says, “Prepare to be deceptively lulled with warm acoustic intros and melodic riffs, as Ginsberg’s voice belies a pithy wisdom…Whatever your take, this is one artist who will do anything but leave you cold or wanting.”

The Asbury Park Press writes, “With an atomic persona and a fiercely independent ethic - reminiscent of early Jeff Buckley or Thurston Moore - Ginsberg challenges every notion of what a performer should and shouldn’t be…it’s obvious that Eric Ginsberg is destined to hit. Soon.”

triCityNews calls Eric Ginsberg “one part Tasmanian Devil and one part P.T. Barnum. He combines energy with enthusiasm and creates order out of seeming chaos,” and added, “he’s a firecracker…if I had an ounce of motivation, I’d be like this dude.”

the hub proclaims, “For over two years now, Red Bank area songwriters have had a patron saint of sorts - musician and songwriter, Eric Ginsberg.”
