Eric Wilson Adams is Making a Scene

Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Eric Wilson AdamsEric Wilson Adams lit up the Prairie State’s rock scene with raw authenticity and relentless energy. Growing up in Brookings, South Dakota, he was just 14 when he and four friends formed COCOON in 1969—an unapologetically scrappy rock‑and‑roll cover band that cut its teeth playing armories, bars, proms, and sock hops throughout the state from their “puke‑green” converted school busThey weren’t polished—they were real. Original? Not yet. But earnest, loud, and hungry—the band’s live sets featured covers of the Rolling Stones, Beatles, Cream, Animals, and more, fueled by a DIY spirit that said, “we don’t care about rules—we rocked them anyhow” http://www.makingascene.org
