Having first come to prominence as a member of the funk-jazz collective Fat Mama (featuring drummer Joe Russo), pianist/composer Erik Deutsch has taken his talents across the world to play with some of the finest musicians alive. Born in Washington D.C. but currently living in Brooklyn, NY, Erik splits his time between his own band and backing up artists like Norah Jones, Rosanne Cash, Jim Campilongo, Alice Smith, Ellery Eskelin, Steven Bernstein, and Theo Bleckmann. Deutsch holds the distinction of being the only keyboardist to tour regularly with 7-string guitar master Charlie Hunter, and has spent the last two years on the road with Shooter Jennings, Citizen Cope, and Phillip Phillips.

2012 marked the release of Deutsch's 3rd album Demonio Teclado, a psychedelic blend of retro soul-jazz and rock. Recorded live to 1/4-tape, the music is a blend of groove, sonic exploration, and modern jazz composition that occupies a meaningful place in the current music world whilst paying tribute to the past masters.
The ERIK DEUTSCH BAND features Jeff Hill/bass (Rufus Wainright), Tony Mason/drums (John Scofield), and Jon Graboff/pedal steel/guitar (Ryan Adam) - a few favorite Falcon players among them!
