“I discovered theater. Somewhere along the way I learned to act so, on a whim, I auditioned for NYU and got in.”
In New York City, Ed founded a theater company (Rabbit Hole Ensemble) in 2005 and has since written, directed, acted, designed, and won awards for his minimalist approach to theater. Then…he walked away.
He spent a decade writing music and learning how to produce it. He built a home studio in a barn on his property in Woodstock, NY.
“I have a very specific sound. Something like The Beatles meets Brecht. Who’s he? Bertolt Brecht, a theater guy from Germany, 1920 – 50s. Look him up. He’s one forward thinking individual.
All those years making theater, I guess I have a thing for storytelling. Now I tell stories with sound.”
Who’s in the band?
“Just me in my little studio in Woodstock. Track by track. Layer by layer. Like making a play only…I do it alone.”
