Eric Goulden-best known by his stage name Wreckless Eric-is an English rock and new wave singer songwriter from East Sussex, England. As Wreckless Eric he needs little introduction — he wrote and recorded the classic Whole Wide World and had a hit with it back in 1977. Since then it's been a hit for countless other artists including The Monkees, Cage The Elephant and most recently for Billie Joe Armstrong of Green Day. Eric’s three most recent albums ‘amERICa’, Construction Time; Demolition and Transience are widely praised as his best work to date. His albums encapsulate pop, bubblegum, garage trash and psychedelia. His live performance is a sonic journey through time and space incorporating songs from all stages of his long career. Unmasked, unhinged and still alive - a survivor of Covid-19 (resulting in a near-fatal heart attack), Eric presents himself alone if not simply with electric  Joining Eric at Fleetwood's is the ever evolving musical artist J.D. Pinkus (Melvins/Butt Hole Surfers/Honky). Jeff 'JD' Pinkus is an American bassist best known for his work with American punk band Butthole Surfers from 1985 to 1994 and since the 2008 reunion.
