E. Lundquist

E. Lundquist is the recording name of Los Angeles composer, producer and multi-instrumentalist Eric Borders. A pianist, synth enthusiast, multi-instrumentalist, and arranger, Eric creates warm, cinematic music rooted in soul-jazz, funk, R&B, library records and live-band groove. Before releasing music as E. Lundquist, he founded Balance and the Traveling Sounds, a seven-piece group blending hip-hop, soul, funk and rock. He later developed the Captain Supernova / C.SN alias, building a cosmic jazz-funk world across releases with Cold Busted and Ropeadope, earning support from outlets including LA Weekly, Wax Poetics, Okayplayer and Bandcamp New & Notable. With E. Lundquist, Eric brings the focus back to his own story. The name itself is personal, a nod to his family lineage, and the music reflects that shift: intimate, reflective and composer-led, while still carrying the widescreen feel of 70s soundtracks, blaxploitation scores, Rhodes-driven soul-jazz and analogue synth textures. Following his King Underground releases Multiple Images and Art Between Minds, Eric’s forthcoming album Chasing My Reflections moves deeper into identity, resilience and self-reflection, pairing his arrangements with vocalists and musicians including India Blue, Kendra Morris, Taylor Williams and Michael Damani. Across his work, Eric’s sound lives between headphones and the screen being detailed, soulful, groove-led and cinematic, with a strong sense of warmth, space and live musicianship.
