In 2006 Eric was the main focus of a front page Billboard feature on the independent soul scene. His club anthem "Change For Me" has been featured on numerous Ministry and Defected compilations. He has written songs for Jill Scott, Jazzy Jeff, Will Downing and Musiq Soulchild, and is signed to EMI Music Publishing. In the UK he has performed on more than a dozen occasions at the Jazz Café – where he is one of the highlight acts of the venue's year - and in October 2008 he headlined London's IndigO2. When he performed an instore at Fopp in April 2007 to promote the newly released "Left", more than 100 people had to be turned away.
