Description
After joining Jellyfish in 1993 just before its demise, Eric's big break came when he was asked to sing for Slash's Snakepit. He then returned to Roger Manning from Jellyfish for an album as Imperial Drag, worked as sideman (e.g. for Alice Cooper) and studio guy and had two releases as Sextus. He's now back with Roger in The Lickerish Quartet, which released two EPs.

End song: "What Do You Want from Me?" from The Eyes of Alice Cooper (2003). Intro: "Beggars & Hangers-On" by Slash's Snakepit from It's Five O'Clock Somewhere (1995). More at thelickerishquartet.com.
