Louis Marullo (born July 12, 1952), known professionally as Eric Adams, is an American singer who has been the frontman of the heavy metal band Manowar since its inception in 1980. Previously, he sang for the group Looks, which also included childhood friend and future Manowar bassist Joey DeMaio. His stage name is a combination of the names of his sons, Eric and Adam. While a teenager, Marullo and some classmates formed a garage band, The Kids, in 1965. The group performed shows in the mid-1960s, with songs generally focusing on childhood love. The band released the song "Lovin' Everyday" in 1965. It was released as a single for their 1966 album Class of '66. In 1980, Marullo joined the newly founded band Manowar and has been the lead vocalist since. Ross the Boss proposed to him to use a stage name, and he chose "Eric Adams" as an homage to his sons Eric and Adam.[2] Adams can also play guitar and drums; in his hunting DVD, Wild Life and Wild Times, he plays guitar in the soundtrack. In July 2011, Adrien Begrand wrote about him: "They (Manowar) have one of the most likeable, charismatic frontmen in the genre".[3] When asked about the band's relationships with present and former band members, he remarked that previous band members remain on good terms with the band, sometimes even contributing instruments to new albums. Eric Adams can hold high note screams for 30 seconds[4] at Manowar shows. Adams's main vocal influence is Ian Gillan. Adams declared in an interview that he used to go to every Deep Purple show as a young man because he loved Gillan's voice.[5] However, he also worked to create his own, personal style. In his prime, his voice covered more than four octaves, from bass G1 to the soprano C6.[6] As Adams has aged, his vocal high end has decreased, so recent Manowar albums are tuned lower than earlier albums.
