My EP ‘In the Green’ is out now on all streaming services. It’s three whole hearted celebratory songs about Summer. I’m really proud of this- my best work. One of the songs, ‘Stars behind Stars’ has been by most popular song on Soundcloud. ‘Stars behind Stars’ is a song about visiting Wales- memories of visiting as a child mixed with visiting with my own family. It’s all about discovering the world is so much bigger and wilder and more wondrous than I had realised!

I love performing live as well as recording. I equally love polished ‘soundscapes’ like Dance Beneath a Diamond Sky and acoustic

performances like these:

Performing my song ‘Your Big Dream’ at the Into The Trees Fest.
Getting everyone joining in with my version of ‘We Got The Power’ by The Kids from Fame!

I made my album ‘Your Big Dream’ during lockdown. It’s available on iTunes, Amazon and all major download/streaming services.

Here’s the title track, I made a surreal picture story that follows the narrative of the song.

Take a look at my Hear Now page to preview the tracks:

‘She Smiles and you are Born Again’, one of my favourite tracks:

….and here’s a lovely review from Amy at Click, Roll, Boom:

“Ed Boxall shares his stunning new single ‘She Smiles and You’re Born Again’ taken from the album “Your Big Dream”.

A bright, joyful indie pop song sharing the indulgent feeling of falling in love, ‘She Smiles and You’re Born Again’ is a wonderfully positive, unapologetically warming sunshine-laced tune. It will fill your ears with happiness and your heart with a benevolent glow.

Beautifully melodic and charmingly wonky. The elements of imperfection, the slightly scratchy guitars, and off-key vocals truly bring ‘She Smiles and You’re Born Again’ to life. They allow Ed’s endearing, friendly demeanor to glisten through.

It’s a vibrantly retro-sounding track featuring a hazy jubilant soundscape of uplifting folky guitars and some 60s, psychedelic-infused moments. It transports the listener back to romantic days of young love and playful summers.

I particularly like the reference to Andy’s Records; it makes me remember being 16 and excited to browse the shelves spending all my money on bands I’d never heard of because I like the cover art.

‘She Smiles and You’re Born Again’ is a glorious dreamscape of people weaved in love, making memories and enjoying blissful, tender moments. It also captivates with the powerful message to always be kind.

Ed has a magically unique voice; he’s a superb songwriter channeling real-life themes in a homely manner. Catchy and alluring ‘She Smiles and You’re Born Again’ is simply magnificent!”

The songs and instrumentals are all about family life, love, growing-up, and the luminous skies under the leaves in the backyard. Musically it’s all about acoustic guitars, indie twang, retro keyboards, homemade percussion, primitive beats and poptimistic melodies!

It’s an album for adults but children will enjoy it too:)

And if you like my music come and hear me at my Open Mic night ‘Out of The Shadows’.

A quiet one… ‘Coming Round the Corner’, a song about coming home. Musically trying by best to write a Clientele song. The Clientele are my favourite band of recent years.
