Eric "E-Train" Manning is a composer, songwriter and multi instrumentalist outside Raleigh, NC. Writing and recording his own music is a full time labor of love. Some tunes are instrumentals for use in commercial licensing and some are recorded with his band, The Rusted Rails. Combining blues with a bayou flavor, and funky bluesey/rock with a little Cajun seasoning, Eric's music can add a power punch to your TV shows and stories depicting wild southern lifestyles, crawfish, cooking shows, romantic comedy, lively commercials, and much more.
