Eric Sanchez

Eric Sanchez was born in 1987 when his family lived in Coney Island. He later moved to 2121 Shore Parkway, a building in Gravesend which had a great view of Coney Island, Cropsey and Bay 49th, and Neptune Avenue and West 15th Street. As a teen, Sanchez was in a band and found inspiration in the music scene at The Temple, a Bensonhurst synagogue which had a punk rock night for teens. He also recalls going to Coney Island’s Siren Festival, a popular indie rock fest in the 2000s.
