All Music Guide Review: 　　Subtle and sleepy, gentle and resonant, Eric Thompson's shimmering take on country-rock takes Nashville's emotive vocal style, throws in a pedal steel and rootsy rock riffs, and turns out a dusty, feel-good -- if slightly too slick -- album called Manic + Organic. Whether on the shuffling rock anthem "Get Back to It" or the humorous, old-school country of "It's a Guy Thing," Thompson's band uses simple arrangements to evoke a true down-home feeling. The songwriting isn't as gritty and powerful as that of Whiskeytown, Ryan Adams, or Kasey Chambers, but Eric Thompson is cut from the same thread -- patterned by Gram Parsons, the Allman Brothers, Johnny Cash, and Willie Nelson -- and Manic + Organic shows his potential to one day make a really spectacular record. ~ Charles Spano, All Music Guide 　　 　　BIO: 　　This former Dallas, Los Angeles, Fresno, Boston, and San Jose resident called 11 cities home in his first 11 school years. Having lived and traveled throughout the world and now living near San Francisco, this songwriter's innate transience is reflected in his wide range of musical styles and influences.
