Bio
Born in 1973, a singer-songwriter since the age of 12, Edwin has consistently grown in his craft through both musical education and hands-on experience.
Being a truly all-inclusive independent artist, merging his song-writing, performing and producing talents, he does enjoy collaborating with other musicians, producers and engineers, learning all he can to ensure his own ability to write music as a genuine reflection of his own experiences.
Edwin released his debut-album "Emphasia" at the end of 2004. “A touch of lovin’”, the first and only
single taken from the album, was released early 2005. Despite very enthusiastic reactions from all sides of the globe, the track never received the needed airplay to enter the charts.
Early April 2006 the decision was made to record a brand-new ‘live’ album at the famous Wisseloord Studios with the help of some of Holland’s finest musicians, all playing with big names such as Candy Dulfer, Paul Weller and Dutch stars Anouk (EMI) and Trijntje Oosterhuis (EMI/Blue Note Label). International top-acts U2, Elton John, Lionel Richie and Bon Jovi have previously recorded material at the same location.
The new adult and stylish sound reflects the combined influences of singer-songwriters George Michael, Mick Hucknall, Chris Rea, Lucie Silvas, Katie Melua, Norah Jones, John Mayer and James Blunt.
"Love’s embrace", the first single of the new album "Passion", has already received a lot of positive attention, resulting in a number of radioshows and promo-gigs.
He wishes to continue the creative process he knows and loves, with the ability and eagerness to reach and affect an extensive amount of people. Therefore he’s always writing and recording material for the follow-up. Edwin’s currently rehearsing for the Passion Promo Tour, which will start in September and is expected to continue into December 2006.
Listeners will enjoy the warmth of the productions, the purity of his voice and the richness of the harmonies. His lyrics are those that turn real-life and personal situations into universal experiences, to which both dedicated fans and new listeners can relate.
The new album will be released on September 1st. 2006, supported by a new single and a promo-tour.
