About Wreckless Eric
A gifted songwriter whose style is informed by playful eccentricity as well as "regular guy from the pub" wisdom, Wreckless Eric is the rare cult favorite who has gained maturity and insight without losing his charm.. In the 70's, he bashed out a series of three-chord punk-pop singles highlighted by "Whole Wide World," a cult hit that later became a modern standard. After parting ways with Stiff in the early '80s, Eric scaled back on performing and recording. He returned to duty in 2004 with Bungalow Hi, and in 2008, he cut the first of two albums with Amy Rigby before kicking off a return to serious productivity with 2015's AmERICa, revealing a greater lyrical maturity along with his trademark melodic sense. Eric kept this revival running into the 2020s, when he released Leisureland, and he revisited one of his few creative missteps with fresh eyes on 2025's England Screaming.
