Eric Shechter has been playing piano since the age of 5. Hailing from Newbury Park, California, he developed into both an accomplished classical pianist and jazz keyboard player. Eric has combined his training with his love of jazz, hip-hop, and pop music to create a unique sound, found nowhere else.
Eric can be found gigging, performing, teaching, and writing in San Diego and across Southern California. He hopes to continue sharing his music with all audiences and develop himself further as a performer and entertainer.
Eric enjoys blogging about everything he’s learned over the years – from gear, career development, music theory, and more. His goal is to succinctly summarize his knowledge in digestible, bite size pieces for musicians and fans of all levels.
