Erik Friedlander

Studio 360

In the 1960s and 70s,  Lee Friedlander  took his family on long road trips across America. The pictures Lee took during these trips established him as one of America’s most celebrated photographers. His son  Erik  is now an innovative cellist and composer, and his solo record  Block Ice and Propane  recalls those family trips long ago.

Bonus Track: “Rushmore”

Erik Friedlander performs the song live in Studio 360.
