Eric’s Trip is an indie rock band from Moncton, New Brunswick. Eric’s Trip achieved prominence as the first Canadian band to be signed to Seattle’s flagship grunge label Sub Pop in the early 1990s. The band had a minor hit in alternative circles with the single “Viewmaster”, from 1994’s Forever Again. Eric’s Trip formed in 1990 when musicians Rick White and Chris Thompson of The Forest joined Julie Doiron and Ed Vaughan (who was later replaced by Mark Gaudet of Purple Knight).
