HELP! Dash ebrake light coming on, rear brakes locking up. please help

If anybody has any clue what may be the problem with my '94 grand cherokee brake please give advice. I was driving my jeep to work and the ebrake light lit up. I do not use my e brake so I did not know why this came on. After applying brakes a few times (when coming to stop signs, stop lights, etc.) I could feel the rear brakes holding me back. Then after a few more minutes and a couple more brake uses the rears just completely locked. I had to have my father come and relieve the pressure in the left-rear line by opening the bleeder which then released the drum brake. I slowly drove home being easy with the brakes and they started to apply again but not so much where my tires locked up and skidded.

If anybody has come across this problem please reply.
