ARTIST PROFILE
ERIC GARCIA ITSALWAYSMUSIC
San jose, California
band: ARIS
STICK SIZE: 5A
Born into a family of music I can gladly say it’s truly “in my blood”. I began playing drums at the age of 6 and never stopped, took a break, or gave up. I’ve had an amazing journey learning and discovering all genres of music from jazz, latin, funk, reggae, metal, thrash, hip-hop, djent, and gospel! I am currently building my own brand through my content on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, tiktok called “It’s Always Music”.
Our band Aris originated as a 4 piece with ex-vocals Daniel C., Eric G. drums, Michael R. bass, and Victor A. guitar. We have been writing original music for the past 4 years. We’ve done a soft tour up and down the California coast and grew a fan base in our local music scene. Our first EP is streaming on all major platforms such as Pandora, Spotify, iTunes, and over 150 others. We’ve supported a popular Linkin Park tribute band at The Ritz Main stage in San Jose and also joined an annual city festival. Aris has also had radio exposure throughout the South Bay including interviews and LIVE chats.
WHY DO YOU PLAY COLLISION?
I play 5A regular Collision Drumsticks. I love the overall weight, length, and durability of the sticks! The genuine connection and support for the artist is also second to none! I would recommend the Collision brand to any drummer for the simple fact that they hold control, they are very well balanced and hold a ton quality.
