Sessions
I am available for sessions including library music, and am on more than fifty released cd's covering most genres of music. I don't have a home studio but have access to several for excellent rates, including Rubix Studios in west London and Beeboss in Seaford, near Brighton.
The solo videos on the ''Listen / Watch'' page were recorded at Rubix before their desk and mics were upgraded in late 2015. In 2016 I recorded tracks there for Chinese pop stars Bicheng Zhang (Diamond Zhang) and Cheng Bi, and in 2019 the promo video for Canopus Dums which you can see on the "Endorsements/Gear" page. Please drop me an email if you have an enquiry.
I know people have a tendency to think that what they hear you doing is all you do, so if you've only heard me play jazz or fusion and are worried that I won't be able to sit on a groove without doing any metric modulation or crazy fills then please check out the track below from an Andy Drudy session recorded at Real World in 2017!
"Eric Ford's drumming is far more than just a rhythmic foundation; he creates melodic lines of his own, rich with dynamic shifts. His playing offers a modern jazz-fusion approach while also nodding to classic swing and rock. Ford's style is tight, ensuring that every hit accentuates the mood of the song, and his synergy with Naylor's guitar gives the album its deep, full-bodied sound."
