Guitarist, Eric Seiz graduated from Berklee College of Music (Cum Laude) with a Bachelor of Music in Songwriting. While in college, Eric stood out from his peers due to his ability to transcribe (that is to play back and traditionally notate) any song he heard. It wasn't long until he was hired by Cherry Lane Music to transcribe some of the most challenging guitar / vocal parts by respectable rock bands such as "Fates Warning" and "The Dave Mathews Band" which would be published in transcription books sold in music stores around the world. Throughout Eric's career, he has played in dozens of bands, recorded numerous albums, and toured as far west as California and as far east as the Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Eric played on the side stage for several Dave Mathews Band concerts in the US and opened up for Platinum selling Pop-punk group, Simple Plan in Steamboat, CO after his band won 1st Place in a Hard Rock Cafe National Band Competition. Eric also had the honor of performing on stage with George Clinton (of Parliament Funkadelic) in NYC.
Besides performing, Eric writes and produces a wide range of custom recordings for clients who need music for special events and videos. Eric's studio is set up for remote recording, so if you are a musician / producer / singer-songwriter and you need tracks for your song, he can easily record and send them to you.
Music Entertainment - Eric and his wife, Karen perform an eclectic mix of music at high-end restaurants & country clubs, various private events (weddings, bar/bat mitzvahs, cocktail hours, birthday/retirement parties, corporate events, etc.) and public events (township tree-lightings, political events, street fairs, etc.).
