Eric "Aquaman" Hedford is a DJ and musician based out of Portland, Oregon perhaps best known for his Soul Stew Fridays at The Goodfoot and drumming in The Dandy Warhols.
As DJ Aquaman he helped launch the early 90’s West Coast rave scene as part of the One Love crew, performing at warehouse parties. In 2001, after falling in love with 60's soul and funk, he created his Soul Stew night at The Goodfoot Lounge, which remains Portland's longest running dance night.
A multi-instrumentalist, he has played bass in Ural Thomas and the Pain, sang and played keyboards in the new wave band Telephone, and plays bass in the go-go soul band The Satin Chaps.
