Taking Europe by storm in the face of adversity
From a quiet village on the Shropshire-Wales border to the heart of Germany’s punk scene, via college in Worcester and Hereford, Eddy Edge has never followed the easy path.
A musician shaped by resilience, rebellion, and raw honesty, his story is one of survival—growing up with visual impairment, discovering music as an escape, and finding a new life after hitting rock bottom.
Now, after hundreds of gigs across Europe, he’s living the dream he was once told was impossible.
So how did a bass guitar and a best friend change everything? Eddy joins us to tell the full story...from Cologne.
