Eric Hughes (Baritone)


Eric is a veteran of jazz a cappella, and is a founding member of West Side 5. A classically-trained pianist with a Music degree from Harvard, he pursued a passion for jazz vocal harmony and arranging in multiple a cappella groups in college, where he performed with Bobby McFerrin. He went on to study with Peter Eldridge (of the New York Voices), and in 2009 formed West Side 5 with a group of college friends. He is a frequent guest at a cappella festivals, as both a teacher and adjudicator.
