The Erik Steaggles Project

About Me

Hey there folks, well my name is Erik, I'm a 21 year old musician, I sing, play guitar, bass, piano and the odd bit of percussion. I have been writing songs for a long time now, whether it has been on my own or with mates. I am currently in a band which goes by the name of Ready?Aid-Fire! Our seperate profile should be up and running very shortly... Watch this space. In the meantime, you can listen to these lovely little songs I have put together. I have actually made several albums. If you like what you hear, and want to hear more, leave me a nice little comment or message and I will (eventually) get back to you. Peace.
