HS: First and foremost please tell our readers a little about yourself.

Eric: My name is Eric Vargas and I’m from Watsonville, California. Ever since I can remember, I have been surrounded by music. I was raised listening to my father, Javier Vargas, sing with his mariachi at family party’s, weddings, performances and at home while he would practice. He had and still has a strong work ethic to always improve his voice. I grew up observing the amazing talent my father had, not only to sing, but to also entertain. Those memories remain very clear to me still today. I’ve also been blessed to have an older brother, Andy Vargas, who is a professional singer. He is the lead singer for Carlos Santana and has been in the band for over ten years now. My brother is a spiritual driven individual and he shares many insights with me about the ever changing music industry. Through him, I’ve had the opportunity to observe the dynamics of a major tour and all those experiences were fun and valuable.

HS: How long have you been singing?

Eric: Like I said before, I grew up with music all around me so I have been singing since I started talking. My dad always reminds me about the times I would sing when I was about 5 at family parties and how he knew since then them music was in me. I did a few school plays here and there but I didn’t become serious about music until I graduated from college. I remember recording a song with my brother in LA at his home studio and saying to myself that I wanted to make it more than just a hobby. A few years later, here I am…just completed my first EP, and recently released a music video and couldn’t be happier.
