Eddie first came to prominence as a member of the well-respected
group “Salmontails” in the early eighties. He subsequently
achieved wider recognition as a singer in his ten-year partnership with
John Morris.
Eddie is currently concentrating on developing his career
as a solo artist. His performances give audiences the opportunity to experience
for themselves the full flavor of his rich tenor voice. He has appeared
at clubs, concerts and numerous festivals including Alcester, Bedworth,
Bromyard, Sidmouth, Warwick & Whitby. At these and other clubs and
festivals he has deservedly earned a reputation for putting his heart
into his performances demonstrating his versatility as an artist in ballad
sessions, voice concerts, shanty sessions, wall of sound, gospel, singarounds
and his workshops.
