In February 2006 guitarist Adrian Belew performed with the Paul Green School of Rock where he met drummer Eric Slick and his sister, bassist Julie Slick. In May 2006 Adrian announced that they would comprise his new power trio. Through the end of 2006 the trio toured throughout the East, South, & Western United States, followed by more touring (nationally and internationally) in 2007 and 2008.
After their fall 2008 tour of Europe and Australia, the group plans to record a new original studio album with the working title e in early 2009. Adrian has said that the new work (which Eric has described as "a complex post post-modern symphony"[1]) will be an extended suite, which the new material debuted by the trio during 2008's live shows (with titles such as "planet e" and simply "e") will become parts of.

Eric Slick is the twenty year old drummer for the Adrian Belew Trio. By the time he was age four, he sat behind a real set of drums and over the next fifteen years, Eric, who honed his skills at the Paul Green School of Rock as their very first All-Star drummer, has also performed with Napoleon Murphy Brock, Ike Willis, Jon Anderson of Yes, Eddie Vedder, Ann Wilson of Heart, Adrian Belew, Mike Keneally, Ween, Crescent Moon, John Wetton, Carlos Alomar, and Project Object.
In November 2007 Eric opened his own official web site, eric slick dot com.
Julie Slick began taking bass lessons at age twelve at the Paul Green School of Rock as one of seventeen students Paul Green taught in his apartment in 1998 in order to help pay his tuition at the University of Pennsylvania, where he was a philosophy major. Green had the students jam at venues around the city to give them real experience as musicians. For their first show, Green and his students performed Pink Floyd's The Wall at the Griffin Cafe in Philadelphia, PA. He didn't have a drummer so the owner of the restaurant sat in. Julie’s mother, Robin, suggested that Green consider her 11-year-old son, Eric Slick, who eventually became the house drummer. The Paul Green School of Rock was later born. Eric began studying drum lessons at the school and now teaches there.
