About
I remained a member of his band until he passed away in 2005. From 2005 - 2012, Eric played saxophone and worked as a sound engineer for the nationally known club in Houston Texas, called Scott Gertner's Sky Bar and Grill.
An extension of Eric's style of music makes up the 'Eric Demmer & The Sax Dawgs' band. The Band does a combination of jazz standards, smooth jazz, funky blues, R&B, and a little bit of old time Rock n' Roll. From a nice ballad, to dueling sax solos, The Sax Dawgs never fail to leave a crowd in awe.
When word reached saxophonist Eric Demmer, no doubt he had to chuckle a bit at the New Artist designation. In a career that extends across multiple decades, Demmer has had several high profile gigs including a lengthy stint in the band of Blues Hall of Fame member Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown, and more recently with guitarist Mike Zito.
