Eric "Hair" Phinney

Hailing from Olympia, Washington, Phin originally began his music career as a bassist in a local metal outfit. He and Brandt joined forces in 2014 after they met through a mutual friend at El Corazon in downtown Seattle, and have been playing music/shows together ever since. Eric picked up the drums (starting on percussion) after years of playing bass guitar, which is where he found his most recent role in the Dirty Birds.

Fun Facts: Phin can open a beer bottle with anything, is a killer disc golf player, loves gin, fishing, spicy chicken teriyaki, and playing drums.

Favorite Bands: Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden, Sublime, Queens of The Stone Age, Incubus, Clutch
