Eric Dove has been a mainstay in the Midwestern music scene for years. He has opened for a long list of national country acts including Josh Gracin, Buddy Jewell, Sugarland, Steve Azar, Jeff Bates, Jason Aldean, Josh Turner, and Little Big Town. Eric also made a splash in Nashville as a regional finalist of ‘Nashville Star’ as well as the ‘Colgate Country Showdown’, contests which spawned the likes of Miranda Lambert and Garth Brooks respectively. All this done while playing one Ovation or another. His current favorite, a red burst C2078AX Custom Elite with AAA grade solid spruce top, scalloped X bracing, and an Op Pro Studio preamp with 1/4” and XLR Outputs.
