Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Erick Brandt

Erik Brandt has been the ringleader of the award-winning Twin Cities eclectic Americana group the Urban Hillbilly Quartet since 1995. When he’s not on stage, he’s in the classroom teaching high school English in St. Paul, Minnesota—bringing the same love of language to both his students and his songs. Over the years, he’s performed in venues across the United States, Canada, and Australia, and even on street corners throughout Europe. In between tours and gigs, he’s taught everything from Shakespeare and grammar to haikus and standardized test prep.
