Eric Gordon is a composer, producer, and music artist based out of Minneapolis, Minnesota. Although he is no foreigner to the Minnesota music scene, Eric gained recognition as a contestant on the television show, American Idol. Eric released his debut R&B-pop album, Nobody Said That It Was Easy, in spring of 2017.
The first single (also the title track), premiered via live performance on the NBC-affiliate, KARE-TV channel in Minneapolis and immediately gained national radio airplay on iHeartMedia stations, including Minneapolis/Saint Paul stations Cities 97.1 and KDWB 101.3. Organically achieving over 1M plays across all streaming platforms, the success of the single (and album) paved the way for Eric to open for such bands as Color Me Badd, Echosmith, Ocean Park Standoff, and The Revivalists.
Since the release of Nobody Said That It Was Easy, Eric has written a handful of singles and music featured on major networks, including BET, NBC, and Netflix. He is currently working on a follow-up R&B album, scheduled for release in 2024.
