By Eric Richardson

I actually saw Jeremy Toback at Ground Zero, the USC coffee house that's about 50ft from my dorm room. You Make Me Feel, Word Behind Words, and Clockwise are songs I particularly like.

Eric Richardson lives in Atlanta, Georgia, where he works on payments infrastructure for Cash App.

Past lives involved streaming audio for Southern California Public Radio, running a hyperlocal news site for Downtown Los Angeles, working on custom mapping code, and writing Perl at the Jet Propulsion Labratory.
