Erik Truelove is a Houston-area drummer, singer, guitarist, music educator, and serial entrepreneur — and he's been at it for over four decades. After 17 years performing across Arizona with artists like The Tryst, Andy Hersey, The Mockingbirds, and many more, he brought that experience to Houston where he's become a familiar face on stages throughout the region.

As a four-time world champion of drumming accuracy, he's built a reputation on keeping impeccable time — but these days you're just as likely to find him out front singing Tom Petty songs with his tribute act Mary Jane – Tom Petty Experience. When he's not on stage, he's teaching the next generation at The School of Rock in Pearland, TX. Three pillars, one passion — music, people, and the drive to build something great.
