| When Eric wa 18, John Nymann, guitarist for the band “Mile Hi”, gave him a call and asked if he would want to form a new band together. The two had known each other from the past, since their former bands (“Mile Hi” and “Kid Courage”) had played together at the Mabuhay Gardens on Broadway. In agreement, John Nymann and Eric Martin got together people from both their previous bands and formed a new group named 415 – it was the area code for the San Francisco Bay Area, as every person in the band was from that place. 415 was formed in late 197 and it marked the start of Eric Martin’s career as lead vocalist.Soon they were opening for established acts like Billy Squire, Hall and Oates, Rick Springfield, Molly Hatchet, Marshall Tucker Band and Foreigner, to name a few. 415 was later signed on to Elektra/Asylum Records under the management of Walter “Herbie” Herbert and Sandy Einstein. Both persons managed and worked for the band “Journey”. The management decided to change the name of the band to the “Eric Martin Band” (EMB), as singer-named bands were popular during that time. EMB debuted their first album in 1983, entitled “Sucker for a Pretty Face”. The LP received a gold disc, and consequently led to the band’s appearance in American Bandstand and in various arena tours as the opening act for the likes of ZZ Top, Night Ranger, and Journey. Despite continuing to land high-profile gigs as support for some of the most popular acts at the time, the band decided to split up in 1985 after returning from the ZZ Top tour. Eric went on to have a successful career as a solo artists, session artist and member of the band "Mr Big". Sucker For A Pretty Face is finally out on CD with seven bonus tracks. | |
