Eric (b.1978) began playing guitar in 1989 at the age of 11. Eric joined his first band, Thrash Zone that summer and began playing small venues around the region almost immediately. Eric also started a side project named Z.O.D. (Zombies of Death) in early 1990 and recorded several EPs with Z.O.D. while continuing to play out steadily and recording with Thrash Zone.

Eric's musical career began to stall in 1993 as he pursued his other love, BMX racing, and concentrated more on his high school education. In 1996, Eric helped to form Ball Breaker, an AC/DC tribute band, and played a handful of shows until mid-1997 when he decided to call it quits on his musical career. Then in 2000, Eric joined Buhda Hat, a classic rock cover band which played only a few shows before collectively splitting up to pursue other creative venues.

In 2002, Eric was invited to audition for Real Time by drummer Tom Haffner and immediately loved their sound. After purchasing a bass, Eric got the gig as bass player for RealTime.

Eric's recording credits include: ThrashZone-Whopper, Z.O.D.-Money MF!, Thrash Zone-(selftitled), Z.O.D. Cracked Sidewalk, Human Remains-Thrashin' Metal, Z.O.D.-IHate Rap, RealTime-(self-titled) and RealTime-Volume II.
