Ed Valauskas is a Boston legend. He's played with everyone, and produced some of the cities best musical exports from the comfy confines of Q division studios in Cambridge, MA. Ed and I met back when my former band Love in Stockholm recorded our 3rd release "Hold Back the Sun".

Ed is the musical director of the Hot Stove Cool Music event that happens every year in Boston.

Ed talks all about it in our chat as well as many other things! Enjoy

Today on the show I have my good buddy Eric Hall of the band Red Wanting Blue. Such a blast talking shop with Eric, and it got pretty silly at times.

Eric is one hell of a guy and I hope you enjoy this episode of After the Gig!
