Originally from Indiana and the son of a preacher, Eddy learned to play piano at a young age and taught himself to read and write music. He further honed his craft in Los Angeles and Atlanta, where he formed a live band that performed during the Olympic Games in 1996. Influenced by artists ranging from Stevie Wonder, Prince, Michael Jackson, Sting, Seal and producers such as Quincy Jones, Dr. Dre, Timbaland, Gamble & Huff, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Eddy is notable for successfully combining various genres including hip-hop, R&B, jazz, pop, electronica, classical and more, creating a unique sound all his own. His debut album titled "Mad City 2010" was the first in a series of four projects released that year to benefit the 'Keep A Child Alive' organization, a non-profit that provides medical treatment and care to children living with HIV/AIDS in Africa and India.
