加拿大流行歌手,主要是电子风格
Eric Solomon was barely a week and a half old when his family relocated from Montreal to Kinshasa in the African Congo. For thirteen years the family flourished there. “It was paradise,” Solomon says, but it didn’t last. “One day I left school and a military man handed me a handwritten, photocopied note saying war was coming.”

Within days civil war broke out, forcing the family into hiding. A week into the violence Solomon’s father received word of an evacuation flight bound for Israel. There was only one seat open and Eric was in it. “I did not see my whole family for a decade. I couldn’t speak to them for a year. I didn’t know if they were dead or alive.”

Solomon returned to Montreal to live with his extended family. It was there he heard music in his head for the first time. “Music is like a first language to me. One day I was walking by a construction site and I heard this melody in my head through the ruckus and the beating of the concrete. It wasn’t a thought. I wasn’t looking for it. It just found me.” Ever since Solomon has been driven by the sounds he hears in his mind, and although music wasn’t his first love, in Montreal it became his obsession. An obsession he’s only just begun to fully explore with the release of his independent debut EP, Antarctica.

A deft blend of 80’s soul, funk, and modern electro and alternative pop, Antarctica has already invited comparisons to artists like Calvin Harris and Frankmusik. In June 2010, immediately following its release, Antarctica was featured on the front pages of the iTunes Pop and Electronic sections. That same month Virgin Radio Vancouver also chose Solomon as their feature artist. Antarctica’s lead single, The Only One – a mix of 80’s R&B and modern electro so fluid it puts listeners in an instant mind-lock – is receiving substantial airplay across Canada.
