Eyre Price

Eyre Price was born in Syracuse and raised outside of Scranton, but thinks of America's highways as his home. He's travelled the Blues Highway all the way from Bob Dylan's boyhood Minnesota home to Professor Longhair's shrine in New Orleans. With his son by his side, he's made pilgrimages to Graceland, Sun Studios, Stax, and Chess Records. He's stood at the crossroads where legend says Robert Johnson sold his soul and walked the alley between the Ryman and Hank Williams' favorite honky tonk. The result of these travels is BLUES HIGHWAY BLUES, a debut novel that reflects Price's passion for all American music, from the Delta's blues to Seattle's grunge.

Eyre lives in central Illinois (for now) where he is raising his son to have a wandering heart and a musical ear.
