"'When It Rains, It Pours', the first single from my upcoming 2026 album is my sonic declaration that storms are meant to be weathered, not avoided," says Eric Steckel. "It’s both a reflection of my own life and career as well as a testament to resilience and tenacity, even when - especially when - storms are on the horizon. It serves as a reminder to us all that we can find strength in the storm itself. When the rain comes, as it inevitably does, some seek shelter. Others choose to stand tall and let the storm reveal their inner strength. 'When It Rains, It Pours' is the musical reminder to channel that strength!“
The song starts with a powerful drum fill and continues to impress with a strong guitar riff, a screaming Hammond organ and a driving groove. Eric Steckel has toured worldwide sharing the billing with Steve Vai, Gregg Allman, Johnny Winter, John Mayall, Ray Charles, Larry Carlton, Robben Ford, and others and was voted into Total Guitar magazine's list of "The 100 Greatest Blues Guitarists of All Time" and named one of "10 Future Blues Stars” by Guitar Player.
Following the single release, Eric Steckel embarks on an extensive European tour.
