Ed Carlsen has always been a wanderer. A dreamer, even. Of faraway places and people, of a world to be explored. Before becoming an acclaimed musician, Carlsen was a pilot. In a way, it was the perfect vocation – itinerant, a little romantic – for someone with his wanderlust and thirst for new experiences. Gradually though, he drifted away from flying and all around Europe. Back to music too, something he’d grown up with and loved, and something that came back into focus. Playing both guitar and piano, his early influences were diverse and eclectic. An interest in production led him to a degree in Music Technology at the London College of Music, where sound design, and composition for film and visual media, further piqued his creativity. Combined with his unconventional approach to playing instruments, it gave his new work an intriguing edge; innovative, exciting, daring. Each of Carlsen’s previous releases were written and recorded in different cities, the product, he says, of “changing contexts and perceptions. I travel when I need to write.” In early 2020 Carlsen moved to Hamburg, his mood informed not just by the emotion of once again starting anew in an unfamiliar place, but the unease of lockdown and the sense of dread enveloping the world. His travels are a search for something; his music too and Grains Of Gold is wonderfully evocative of not just the search, but what one discovers along the way. About life; about yourself.
