   About Eric Hastings
My name is Eric. I make music. Mostly by hitting things, but also by pressing buttons, turning knobs, striking keys, etc. I perform, record, and tour with a variety of different artists/bands. I teach drum lessons, too. My main goal is to be creative and to push myself and those I work with to greater heights. I want to build a recycled house made out of shipping containers. My wife is my hero. She is a cancer survivor and an atmospheric chemist. She does cool things like camp in the middle of Greenland for a month and drill ice cores. Balance.

Hey Eric, thanks for the add!  I'm proud to offer you "Heavy In The Beats Vol. 1 - A Different Drum", the first installment in my FREE mixtape series dedicated to giving drummers and percussionists exposure.  "Volume 1" focuses on the avant garde side of the instrument, and  features Billy Martin (of Medeski Martin & Wood), myself, and others!
