Eric “Boots” Greene is a music industry business professional and has been drumming since he was two years old in his hometown of Philadelphia. He admits to being blessed with the gift of music ever since he can remember. From performing at his family’s church, to his self-teaching of keyboards, instruments and learning The Wiz entirely by ear, he has had a profound aptitude for music, and knew he was meant to perform with top entertainment industry leaders. While still in his teens, he started touring with Jill Scott and ultimately performed with numerous well-known musicians including Wiz Khalifa, Alicia Keys, Cardi B, Pharrell Williams, Jay-Z, Beyoncé, P-Diddy, Common, Kelis, Ferg, Patti Labelle, and Snoop Dogg. Boots is a talented songwriter and producer, having written, mixed, mastered and produced three of his own albums, as well as for other artists, including more than 10 albums for unsigned artists. He also an author, writing the short non-fiction book entitled, The InstruMENTAL-list, which captures the real life of being a musician, artist, father and man. Boots just wrapped up shows with hip-hop legend EMINEM, which provided some pretty remarkable stories for All Access Live!
