Hailed by Rolling Stone for his astonishing mastery of his craft, Ed Blunt is a multi-instrumentalist storyteller whose songs will both make you laugh and gently break your heart.

Featured on BBC Radio and playlisted in all 620 Caffè Nero branches, Ed's songs weave folk, jazz and roots with a dry Randy Newman-esque humour.

Ed grew up in the Surrey Hills surrounded by the sounds of Paul Simon and James Taylor. His talent for playing by ear led him to study jazz piano at the Guildhall School, but on graduation he was left with crippling stage fright.

Stumbling on an online songwriting camp during the Covid lockdown proved to be a turning point. Mentor Chris Difford (of Squeeze) discovered his talent for the first time, calling him a quiet genius.

Since then, Ed has released two acclaimed albums under his own name, Over The Moon (2022) and Grown Up (2024) and has collaborated with artists including Tom Odell, Beth Nielsen Chapman and Jamie Lawson.

His endearing stage presence and candid storytelling have earned him a devoted following, leaving a mark on the hearts of his listeners.

A quiet genius.. his songs are wry and completely brilliant ~ Chris Difford (Squeeze)
