He learnt to play from the age four, imitating his older brothers Eugene and Manuel’s upside-down, left-handed playing style (a tradition passed down from their grandfather, Dempsey Garrett, Sr., who was known to jam with the likes of Muddy Waters and Howlin’ Wolf). Winning his first blues contest at 11, four years later Eric signed to Elektra to issue his 1991 debut LP. Supplied with Magneto Gigbag.
