Born in Norway, raised in Argentina, but based in Norway since the age of 11, Eriksen - inspired at 15 by a relative who was a jazz producer - started his selfmade music career as the keyboardist in local pop/rock band IC Eyes (CBS Records, 1988) and later went on to craft songs for artists like Flava To Da Bone, Baba Nation and Grace.

In 2005, he enjoyed a run as jury member of Idol (Norway), from where he later signed then 17-year old runner-up contestant Tone Damli Aaberge, whose pop/jazz/country-tinged, gold-certified album "Bliss" was licensed locally to EMI Music. He currently runs a studio in central Oslo, shared with the young, up-and-coming producer/songwriters Thomas Eriksen and Martin Sjølie.
