Bio / Background
"Bluesand" (2001-4) represents a major leap in Edward's recording career. His intension, with this 4 year composing/recording project, was to gracefully combine all the element of his musical development thus far: Bluesy "Afro" roots, with Indian (and Arabic) music. The album flows smoothly and deeply, but without a dull moment. Sitar, oud, fretless guitar, and Edward's Indian and bluesy vocals are featured throughout. The eight oringinal composisions were painstakenly composed, recorded and produced to create an album which will surely stand the test of time as a masterpiece of modern day acoustic ethno-fusion.
Edward took a great deal of time and care with this album: composing, recording, and producing painstakingly over more than four years. However the music still sounds fresh and alive despite the perfectionistic approach with which this Cd was made. Edward wanted every note and each sound to be just right, and to a large extent achieved this.
