Artist Biography
Available in: gb icon
MC Eric (born Eric Martin on 19 August 1970) is a Welsh-born Jamaican vocalist, multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and music producer, who rose to prominence for his work for the Belgian-based recording act Technotronic.
Born in Cardiff, Wales, Martin is the son of Jamaican parents; his mother an English teacher from Kingston and his father a Pentecostal Church minister from Saint Mary Parish. Martin was educated in Cardiff, London and New York City. He holds dual Jamaican and British citizenship.
Martin (as MC Eric) was a member of techno dance act Technotronic, providing lead vocals on the 1990 hit single "This Beat Is Technotronic". At the height of their career they toured with Madonna on her Blond Ambition World Tour in the 1990s.
Martin's debut album under the name Me One was released in May 2000 on Universal-Island U.K. The 12 track release was titled As Far as I'm Concerned and featured Guru (from Gang Starr) on "Do You Know" and Michelle Gayle on a cover version of The Beach Boys track "In My Room". The latter was released as a single, along with "Game Plan" and "Old Fashioned".
Aside from his solo work, Martin has written with (or for) Jeff Beck, Maxi Priest, The Roots, Capleton, Lynden David Hall and the Sugababes.
In 2011 he signed a recording deal with Glasgow based record label Innovation Music.
