One man band

​

Ed Hopwood is a One-Man Band based in London, U.K. 

He brings together multi-instrumental skills to forge a sound that’s grounded in roots music with a style all of his own; taking elements of Blues, Zydeco, Old-Time, Bluegrass and weaving them into a highly original live show sometimes playing five instruments at once.

​

Ed's performances take him all over the country and previously to Sweden, switzerland and Ireland. Festivals appearances include Love Supreme, Purbeck, End Of The Road and countless Blues festivals including Kinsale(Ireland) and Maryport.

In 2016 he entertained crowds on the beautiful Central Piazza at Festival no.6 warming up for John Cooper Clarke and last year featured at Shambala and Port Eliot festivals.

Ed was also recently invited to play at London's Festival Of The One Man Band, featuring alongside artists such as Son of Dave and Big Joe Louis.
