OM DENNE EPISODE
Dan talks to Eric Slick, drummer for Dr. Dog, from his Nashville home. They go in depth into Eric's many, MANY bands in Philadelphia (including Lithuania, Norwegian Arms, DRGN King, etc.), learning to play and record with his sister Julie and their dad's tape machine, living in the prog-rock world but feeling its constraints (he drummed for Adrian Belew), and getting a phone call from the Dr. Dog guys at just the right time. Eric talks about finding the confidence and encouragement from friends like Dominic Angelella to write and finish his own songs, and through that motivaiton, Eric has also been putting out his own music since 2013. And Dan and Eric definitely go down some musical rabbit holes, including the works of David Byrne, Frank Zappa, and their mutual love of drummer Joe Russo. Eric Slick has a new LP coming out March 5th, 2027 called 'Bounce House'. You can pre-order it at his website, and also enjoy a couple pre-release singles wherever you get your digital music.
