BIO)))))
Ed Drury is a multi instrumentalist, composer, teacher, instrument maker and author. Classically trained as a trumpeter, Ed traded his trumpet for an electric guitar and was a well known side man and session musician on the west coast for the better part of the 1970's. In 1976, growing tired of road life, Ed returned to school and took an associate degree in Respiratory Care. For more than ten years, music took a back seat while he branched into various roles in health care. He quit his hospital job in 1989 to pursue his first love, the study of various traditional music forms from around the world. Today he combines his experience with classical music and his love for traditional music forms by composing music inspired by his world travels and training as a healer.
Studying with almost anyone who will accept him as a student, Ed attempts to finance his quest through teaching, writing and performing. Ed has studied with Aboriginal didjeridu master David Blanasi and world musician Stephen Kent.

Ed lives in Portland Oregon where he teaches, performs and records. Ed has performed with Francis Firebrace-Jones, a Yorti Yorti story teller, with Australian Folk Musician and songwriter Clancey Dunn, Jawighe, Michael Stirling, Jawihge, Randy Graves, Stephen Kent, Dave Crowder and Land of the Blind.

i'd love to meet ed someday! i love all of his songs. this may just be a coincidence, but i have chronic asthma and love world music! ed should come to chicago to perform at one of our many music fests !!

Haha, thanks Dace. You just motivated me to update my bio for sure. As is, looks like I died in 2007. Anyway, thanks for checking out my page. I actually started that page in 1994, writing it entirely in html using vi. I learned a few things, but my coding still pretty much is limited to the normal hypertext things.

I think part of me did. Of course, pieces of me died about every year. Damn I hate birthdays!
