Eric Ragno |
Like Damir, Eric also moved to Los Angeles in 1991, in search of rock stardom.� Damir and Eric found each other in the Summer of '93, and the two began rehearsing eight to twelve hours a week, in Shime's apartment.� "That was a special summer - we would play all afternoon, and the room would turn orange, as the sun would start to fade.� We were oblivious to the time...until the room inevitably went dark!� Because we were communicating on a higher level - preparing for what was to come." |
Eric's father, like Damir's, was an accomplished guitarist in HIS homeland, of Jersey City, New Jersey.� Eric's appreciation for the guitar, and team player mindset made him a natural partner in crime.� "most of my heroes have always been guitar players...Steve Vai...Eddie Van Halen...my dad...and Shime is definitely one of the best players out there." |
With his diverse library of sounds, and animated live performance, Eric's reputation has made him an in-demand player.Since coming to LA, Eric has also worked with such notables as Live Nude Girls, Takara, Simon Wright, and Richard Black of Shark Island.� |
He's also done a slew of one-off musical projects, including work as Music Director of a Hollywood play, and live shows with European pop star, Miko. � However, "there's nothing like standing on stage with Shime, and watching him just go for it!� He's a really great guy, and one of my closest friends." |
As the music, and the band's dynamic live shows evolved, Damir has opened up increasing space to showcase Eric's talent.� "We try to paint a picture.� And the subject is generally going to be the guitar - and you treat it that way.� But, there's still a lot of room on the canvas - and that's mine!" |
