	Musicians - Erik Turner

Erik Turner is best known as guitarist in American hair metal band Warrant.

Turner was born on March 31, 1964 in Omaha, Nebraska. Turner's interest in glam metal originated in his love of New York City band KISS. Turner later became a fan of Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith, adopting guitarists Jimmy Page and Joe Perry as role models.

Turner founded Warrant in Los Angeles, California in July 1984.

It was widely rumoured that Turner and fellow guitarist Joey Allen had not played a note on the first two Warrant albums and that all guitar work had been performed by ex Streets guitarist and session musician Mike Slamer;. While the rumour has never been verified, Slamer's wife confirmed in 1998 that her husband played guitar on both records.
