#130 ed valauskas - "just play 8th notes and shut the f**k up"

Ed Valauskas is a Boston legend.  He's played with everyone, and produced some of the cities best musical exports from the comfy confines of Q division studios in Cambridge, MA.  Ed and I met back when my former band Love in Stockholm recorded our 3rd release "Hold Back the Sun". You can listen to that here: https://open.spotify.com/album/669ssJgNDfL41GIIBg5Rw5?si=mnTRnlNRRKSFLLLIehaAJQ

 

Ed is the musical director of the Hot Stove Cool Music event that happens every year in Boston.  It was started by Baseball hall of fame journalist Peter Gammons, and features an impressive roster of Boston sports heros that come together to play music.  Ed talks all about it in our chat as well as many other things! Enjoy
