Eric Deal has been a musician since 1978, playing his first gig at age 16 in 1980. In '98, he was in a band called TCG (the Troy Castellano Group), which cut a Cd that was released in 1999. That Cd sold well. After a 5 year retirement, he helped form A SLICK DEAL. Just after the studio tracking was complete on their upcoming debut Cd release, they disbanded. Eric took his music with him and has since re-written lyrics.3 songs he already sang, which are on this page. Eric is going back into the studio to re-sing the remaining songs some time in Mar/Apr '09. This will be his 1st attempt at writing/producing/singing lead vocals, along w/all guitar parts on an entire recording project.
