Don’t let the nickname DJ Bunny Ears fool you. Eric may be a DJ, but he’s also a producer, podcaster, director, filmmaker, writer and photographer. Prior to being Executive Creative Director at MassiveMusic New York, Eric already spent over 22 years in the advertising world, working with the likes of Nike and Coke. His nomadic career brought him across America and Europe, taking awards and accolades and leaving dancing and hazy music fans wanting more along the way. As a thought leader in the industry, Eric regularly speaks at panels, juries and conferences, including Cannes, BUMA and SXSW. While he may have a foot in every domain from producing to filmmaking, he never lost his passion for music and making an impact.
