WHO THE F*%K IS ERIC CAMPBELL?????????>



By Alison Taber.

Eric Campbell Is A Singer / Songwriter From Dublin Ireland. The Last Of Five Children, Eric Comes From A Very Musical Background.



With Influences From Artists Like Jeff Buckley, Joni Mitchell, Brian Wilson And Foo Fighters, Eric Is Quickly Establishing Himself As One To Watch. His Own Brand Of Acoustic Driven Rock Not Only Boasts An Amazing Vocal Range, But An Array Of Seriously Infectious Songs That Are Sure To See Him Shrug Off Anonymity And Establish Himself Among Rocks Finest.



Playing In Bands Since The Age Of 12, Eric Is An Amazing Live Performer With An Intoxicating Personality And A Genuine Love For His Art. He Is Never Short Of Something To Say And Is Constantly Winning Friends And Admirers. His Grit And Determination Saw Him Get His Previous Band DEATH VALLEY WATERS Signed To London Label FORCE 10 RECORDS Where Re-structuring And Re-shuffling Within The Label Robbed The Band Of Their Chance. This, However, Marked The Beginning Of Something Better For Eric As He Emerged Unscathed And Even More Determined To Fulfill The Promise We All Know He Is Capable Of.



Being The Chief Songwriter In Most Of The Bands He Has Played With, The Transition To Solo Artist Was An Easy One. When I Asked Him About Playing Live Eric Said, "It's A Really Great Feeling To Play My Own Music To People Who Appreciate What I'm Trying To Do, But It's Even Better When My Friends Are There Playing It With Me, Believing In It Just As Much As I Do"



To Date, Eric Has Released His "FlamMable." E.P On His Own DeAd sKeLLetoN rEcoRdS Label. The E.P Was Very Well Received And Has Sold More Than Respectfully At The Live Shows.



We Are Currently Sending This E.P Out To All Labels, Major And Indie, And We Are Confident That One Or More Of Them Will See Eric's Potential And Hopefully Take It To The Next Level.



I Posed A Few Questions To Eric To Let You Find Out A Bit More About Him. Here's How It Went:



FAVOURITE SONGWRITER:



" That Would Have To Be Brian Wilson People Think It's Funny That I Am Such A Huge Beach Boys Fan (Laughs) I Love It All I Also Love Joni Mitchell (She Says It Like No-One Else Can) And Chris Cornell From SoundgardenExceptional Singer I Like Too Many To Mention"



3 ALBUMS YOU COULDN'T LIVE WITHOUT:



"GOD!!!!! That's A Hard One I Would Have To Say Pet Sounds By The Beach Boys, Superunknown By Soundgarden And Blue By Joni Mitchell"



SONG YOU MOST WISHED YOU HAD WRITTEN:



"Time By Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon Is Such An Amazing Album So Simple But So Un-Fucking- Believably Brilliant"



FAVOURITE MOVIE:



"Star Wars-Empire Strikes Back I Am A Huge Star Wars Nerd I Have Two S.W Tattoo's. I Love Movies. They Are All I Spend Money On. I Bought The Big T.V And The 5.1 DVD. I Have No Life" (Laughs).



GREATEST AMBITION:



"That's An Easy One I Suppose Like All Other Songwriters In My Position, All I Want Is The Chance To Bring My Music To As Many People As I Possibly Can I Believe I Genuinely Have Something To Offer And If Someone Takes A Chance On Me They Wont Be Let Down It's All I Have Ever Wanted My Whole Life And If The Opportunity Presents Itself, I Intend To Work My Ass Off To Maintain And Keep It"



YOUR IDEA OF HEAVEN:



"A Place To Catch Up With Friends And Jam With Some Serious Musicians That We Have Been Robbed Of People Like Kurt Cobain, Jim Morrison, Layne Staley Also A Place With No Politics, Race Hatred Or Boy Bands"



AND FINALLY, YOUR IDEA OF HELL:



"A Room Full Of Guitars That I Have To Re-String But I Am Not Allowed To Play I Hate Having To Re-String Guitars It's One Of The Worst Things Ever Dont Believe Me??? Ask Any Guitar Player" (Laughs)
