Eyre Price was born in Syracuse and raised outside of Scranton, but thinks of America's highways as his home. He's travelled the Blues Highway all the way from Bob Dylan's boyhood Minnesota home to Professor Longhair's shrine in New Orleans. With his son by his side, he's made pilgrimages to Graceland, Sun Studios, Stax, and Chess Records. He's stood at the crossroads where legend says Robert Johnson sold his soul and walked the alley between the Ryman and Hank Williams' favorite honky tonk.

“Maybe there was a very good reason for the primal terror that lies in every human heart, a forgotten understanding that there are some things that cannot be explained or understood, and yet still deserve to be feared.”
Eyre Price, Blues Highway Blues

“Blues all ’bout that blessed belief if’in you put everything you got—your heart, your soul, your flesh, your bone—if you give everything, you can rise up above all that other shit. It’s deliverance in twelve bars.”
Eyre Price, Blues Highway Blues

“You don’t know nuthin’ ’bout women, do ya, son? Sometimes a woman will do things that she knows is gonna hurt her, just ’cause she feels bad ’bout herself and thinks she deserves it. Sometimes they’re just lookin’ to hurt you back. Sometimes they wanna see if you’ll save them. And sometimes they just do stupid shit. None of that matters. The only thing that’s important now is that you love her.”
Eyre Price, Star Killer Star
