Eric Mingus is an acclaimed composer, performer, recording artist and poet who has performed with Elliott Sharp, Hubert Sumlin, Carla Bley, Todd Rundgren, Elvis Costello, Nick Cave, Karen Mantler, Steven Bernstein, Catherine Sikora, Levon Helm and many more, including being a featured performer in many of Hal Willner¹s projects. Eric's compositions range from blues and rock songs to haunting instrumental melodies and jazz inspired arrangements, This extraordinarily broad range of styles is always clearly defined by his unique aesthetic sensibility. Eric has written scores for three documentaries, and has composed almost all of the music for his albums and contributed songs to many more projects.
Eric is currently writing music for his next solo album, and for the next Clockwork Mercury album (a musical project he shares with Catherine Sikora).
Recently Eric Mingus was tapped as a featured performer by U2 and Gavin Friday for the Red Charity event that took place at Carnegie Hall on October 4, 2009. Since his appearance at Carnegie, Eric has been touring The US, Europe, and Canada; Eric was a featured performer for the two-day performance of Hal Winer's "Neil Young Prject" and the Cultural Olympiad at
this year's Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada.

What people are saying About Boynton's Taproom:
“Want to entertain and impress your guest? Skip Boston and head to Manchester and Boynton’s Taproom, quietly nestled on the third floor of an old mill building. This is one sophisticated space worthy of being a private club in South Beach. Here people smile and chat with one another under a canopy of warm lighting and great entertainment. Guest musicians and comedians are well established and always entertaining, reservations suggested. Intimate space, great digs and a true night out.” Editor’s Pick - New Hampshire Magazine July 2010
