Previously named Kilgore Trout, Eric in Outerspace started in 2009. The two-man band of Ryan T. and Sean P. (currently seniors in high-school) began out of Omaha, NE, where they were both born and raised. Being in tune with the Indie Scene, the two had experience with and influence from the likes of Okkervil River, Bon Iver, Arcade Fire, Explosions in the Sky, and the less Indie Led Zeppelin, just to name a few.

The formation of the duo came from evolving out of a "mock-band" comprised of a group of friends. Sean and Ryan became their own a year or so after the old band gave up. They began playing shows after they created a small catalog of original songs, playing at local fundraisers, high-school dances, etc.

They work on their own and have not been taken by anyone. It is a promising band that wishes to be discovered. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
