Ed’s meandering

About Me

The recordings of Ed's meandering are a bit of a 4-track lo-fi sketchbook, with all songs written and instruments recorded by Michael "Ed" Hester over the years. Many were recorded while in Oklahoma, and a bit of the open sky drips into the sound. Currenty, Ed is focused on bass duties with a rocking band...the Jack Straws: www.myspace.com/thejackstraws
