About Eric

After many years as a drummer with Dick Clark Productions, (from age 14 to age 30), providing the drums and/or percussion behind such artists as Mink Deville, The Archies, Neal Sedaka, Dionne Warwick, Van Morrison and Gary Wright (among others), Eric took time off to raise a family and pursue other interests.
These interests include his Native American heritage, (Blackfoot Nation), Hypnosis (he's a Certified Hypnotherapist), the study of Spirituality (Eric is an Ordained Minister, with a degree in Theology) and even massage therapy, (he's a Licensed Massage Practitioner in Washington State). Music has been with him during all these other steps, but most often pushed to the background, 'till now.
Along the way he became an Award-Winning Commercial Photographer, known nationally for his exciting and provocative advertising and entertainment images, covering a 'Who's-Who' of musicial giants for many years.
Recently, Eric has experienced a renewed interest in writing songs, and, while a few of his tunes have been recorded by other artists in years past, his focus now is on recording and performing with TwoRivers Music.
Eric plays and recommends Alvarez Guitars and Roland Products.
