Making a Scene Presents an interview with Dick Earl of Dick Earl’s Electric Witness
Dick Earl has been spreading the love for blues for decades with his raw vocals, solid guitar styling, and stirring harmonica, “from the depths of a true bluesman’s soul.” (KTIM Radio)
With Isaac Ericksen, Mari Ericksen, and Thomas Anderson, Dick Earl’s Electric Witness showcases a rhythm section that is second to none that has won notoriety on the Utah Blues Festival stage (2023) and beyond. Their self-titled debut album can be streamed on all major platforms so that you can experience their brand of Blues whenever, wherever!
As a long-standing member of the Las Vegas Blues Society, Dick Earl has performed with numerous noted studio artists, worked as a pit musician at Tuacahn Amphitheater, shared the stage with Tas Cru, a national award-winning recording artist, and was even featured in the documentary “Into the Fire” which premiered at Doc Utah (2022) and won Best Feature at Zepstone Film Festival (2023).
Recently, Electric Witness competed in the 2023 International Blues Challenge held in Memphis, Tennessee, where they finished 3rd overall! What an achievement! It was an honor for the band to represent the Las Vegas Blues Society in this prestigious event hosted annually by The Blues Foundation.
