You probably know Eric Bazilian from the well known 80's group, the Hooters. Eric has played the biggest stages in the world, opening Live Aid in 1985, playing the huge Amnesty International gig in 1986, and even participating in Roger Waters epic 1990 performance of The Wall, at the site of the former Berlin Wall. Eric has seen it all.

So, why did Eric end up in Sweden, working with a plethora of different European artists and stepping into a radically different role as a quiet songwriter or a producer of these up and coming acts? Well, there's a story there. and we're going to get to the bottom of it.

Eric's new solo album, Bazilian, is available now and has some classic sounding tracks on it. After you listen to this show, I can't exaggerate enough that you should go and pick it up. It's a wonderful series of songs and a perfect snapshot of the world we now live in, good and bad.

This is my conversation with another legend and one of my personal songwriting heroes.... Eric Bazilian on the Rockstar Superhero Podcast.
