Eric Krasno appeared as the latest guest on ‘Let’s Hear It!,’ a webseries hosted by Gary Waldman in which musicians, instrument builders, music store owners, songwriters and more discuss and play instruments that they love. Krasno talked about his signature Ibanez guitar, the EKM100.

The new show kicked off over the summer, on Aug. 3. In addition to Krasno, past guests have included Joe Russo’s Almost Dead’s Scott Metzger, Scott Law, Leslie Mendelson, The Who touring violinist Katie Jacoby, Circles Around the Sun’s Mark Levy, CATS’ Dan Horne, Jeff Hill, Jon Graboff and more. Guests tell stories about their instrument of choice before playing it live on the show.

“I grew up playing a Stratocaster,” Krasno explained in his episode. “When I joined Soulive, I bought a plywood semi-hollow guitar on the way to our first rehearsal/recording session. I had never played a hollowbody–I bought it for fifty bucks. Once we started actually getting gigs and advancing as a band, I was like, ‘Ok, you gotta get a decent guitar.’ So I went and got an Ibanez.”

Waldman was the longtime manager for Neal Casal, as well as the founder of the Neal Casal Music Foundation. He now serves as Circles Around the Sun’s manager and Citizen Cope’s tour manager.
