Eric Mathew Stefani (born June 17, 1967, in Fullerton, California) is an American pop musician, and Emmy-Winning animator and Grammy-nominated composer and writer.
Stefani is known as a co-creator of the group No Doubt with his younger sister Gwen Stefani. His first public musical performance was with a band Applecore. Eric along with his sister Gwen performed at a Loara High School talent show covering Two-Tone Ska with Eric on accordion and Gwen singing.
A few years later, Eric and Gwen met other musicians and called themselves No Doubt. They performed live shows at Fenders Ballroom in Long Beach. The group started writing original material, which Eric contributed much of.
Eric found time between Cypress College and the band to get brief encounters working as an animator for Saturday morning cartoon shows created by John Kricfalusi. That lead to The Bob Clampett Studio which housed Bugs Bunny and upstairs The Simpsons.
Eric togged between television animation and music for several years (eight years on Simpsons).
