“In Their Own Words”

(Bio Video Transcription)

“Hi, my name is Eric Olson, and I teach guitar, bass, piano, ukulele, and drums. I grew up around music and musical people. Both of my parents were folk musicians, and my brother is a musician as well. Around the age of 10, I finally got into guitar, and that was the beginning for me — getting to play all the cool classic rock songs and growing my hair out (unfortunately).

I went to Rhode Island College and earned my Bachelor’s in Music. After that, I completed my Bachelor’s in Education. Currently, I am a third-grade teacher in East Providence. It’s been an absolutely amazing journey here for what I’m told is 9 years, which is incredible! I can honestly say this is one of my favorite places to be. It has never, not for a single day, felt like work. I’m super grateful to be here, and I absolutely love what I do. I hope we get to see you here soon!”
