Rock Artist Eric Dill Featured on Indy Style to Share New Single In My Head with Music Video Preview





Indianapolis native and platinum singer/songwriter Eric Dill returns home from Hollywood with a radio-ready full-length album.  He's currently ranking as the #1 band in Indianapolis on ReverbnationParting from The Click Five in 2006, Dill has focused on his solo career. One of Eric Dill’s collaborations includes the platinum song “No Surprise” by Chris Daughtry (American Idol) which was co-written with Dill.  Not only did he receive a Platinum Album Award but also two BMI Pop Awards in 2010.  With his solo career in full swing, Eric’s first single off his first full length solo album, Forever is Not Enough, is charting at #37 on Billboard’s Top 40 indicator chart. 



I read in an Indy Star article a few weeks ago that Eric was looking to put together his backing band.  I just saw Eric’s appearance on WISHTV8’s Indy Style this Monday and he’s already assembled a new band.  I can’t believe they’ve only been together for a few weeks because they sounded really tight!  The band performed a full electric band set of “In My Head” and “War with the Wolves.”  Eric released his new single “In My Head” to national radio stations on the same day, January 14th.  Eric is currently making a music video for “In My Head,” but offered a sneak peak at the video during his Indy Style appearance.  You can check it out here!



Eric Dill incorporates his unique style, experiences, and personal views in his music. Dill stated, “It was a priority for me to get this record done right...If I die tomorrow, I’ve got to have something that speaks to what I love about music.”  If you want to find out more about Eric Dill, you can check out his interview with Indy Star here and his interview with Indianapolis Monthly here.

Eric Dill Releases New Songs off Forthcoming Album Forever Is Not Enough; After Platinum Song Partnership with Daughtry

Any fan of Daughtry, or fans of his hit song “No Surprise,” must check out his collaborator and similar music tastemaker Eric Dill. Along with Daughtry, Dill has the same musical talents and style as other artists like, Nine Inch Nails, Steve Perry and Smashing Pumpkins. Dill’s record success with his single “War with the Wolves" is just one of the treats off of “Forever is Not Enough.” Focusing on his solo artist career, Eric Dill collaborated with American Idol star Chris Daughtry to write Daughtry’s hit single “No Surprise” along side Nickelback front man Chad Kroger. Since Dill’s vocal prowess has been categorized as one similar to Chris Daughtry whose American Idol stardom put his rich and harmonious voice on the map, this duo was a natural for collaboration. The single earned Dill his first Platinum Album Award in 2009 as well as two BMI Pop awards credited as a composer for “No Surprise” in 2010. Now in 2012, Eric Dill is releasing his sophomore album “Forever is Not Enough.” This album is a striking blend of Dill’s vocal range and skills coupled with lyrics that are truly a piece of Eric’s heart and soul. “Forever is Not Enough” definitely has deeper aspects in the lyrics and possesses a darker side then his first album “Wherever You Are.” None the less, his melodic vocals are still the powerful ones that Dill has represented throughout his career.
