Eric Perkins, with his smooth Southern Soul sound,
hails from Montgomery, Alabama. Perkins played keyboard
with Latimore from 1991 until 1995; he then played with
Marvin Sease from 1996 to 2000. Perkins has worked with
artists like King Tutt, Clarence Carter, Buddy Ace,
Sir Charles Jones, and Denise LaSalle. These were his
teachers and had great influence on his Southern Soul
R&B roots.
At the age of six he began playing keyboard, mostly
in church, and the music was mostly gospel. By his teens
he was writing music, as well as playing gigs, and through
radio was influenced by R&B music by artists like
Fats Domino, Booker T, Quincy Jones, and Baby Face.
