About

John lives outside of New Orleans, and I live in Ohio. We are edro and John Eagle on SoundCloud.

We met on a now defunct Web site that offered interaction between writers, visual artists, and musicians. John was a writer, and I contributed both writing and music. At one point I was the music editor for the site. Eventually the creators  tried to commercialize the site by selling art.

The good news for us, John and I started to work together some. We wrote a few songs like Nevermore and Split Pea Soup in that era.

I discovered SoundCloud, knew nothing about how it worked, few people listened. I knew one person, Continuity Drift from the old site. One day Riny Raijmakers, KodiakTom, Robyn Youlten, and a few others discovered one of my songs. Wow! People did listen.

Eventually, I coerced John into contributing lyrics to some music by the Kona Brothers, which I sang. He started getting into SoundCloud and went out on his own to explore and meet folks.

Now, I don’t see this blog site developing into a Fast Eddie and The Eagle history lesson since John and I are both writers. This will be a great place to add to the stories we’ve begun with music and spoken word.

Until next time,

Ed
