About Me

Hi everybody, I'm Ed, I play guitar in a little band called Radiohead. I like to make wacky noises and sing harmony vocals in the band. Not to take away from my drummer Phillip, but I am also an accomplished drummer as well as a skilled guitarist. I used to do a lot of drugs, but much less now since I have a family in my wife Susan and my son Salvador. Thom Yorke, my good friend and singer for Radiohead, thinks I look like Morrissey, and I couldn't agree more. I am probably the most photogenic and most amiable person in the band. I also have a great sense of fashion.
