parts. That said, he'll also tear your head off with some of the funkiest playing you'll ever hear!"

MIKE BAIARDI

MARC BONILLA
(Emmy nominated guitarist / producer / film and tv composer)

“Ed possesses the enviable ability to attack any style of music be it funk, rock, jazz, pop, latin, blues, etc. and make it seem as if he had been raised on that particular brand alone. He has always connected with any musical combination I’ve thrown at him, which is why I’m still working with him after 20+ years.”








KRISTINE W.
(Recording Artist with 17 Number One Billboard Dance Hits)

“I feel very blessed to have met Ed Roth. He is not only a great player, you can communicate your ideas to him and he implements them. This is a rare gift to be able to understand another persons musical vision instinctively. We have traveled all over the world together. He makes me laugh at rehearsals but can also bring me close to tears when he plays... Ed is a talented gem.”
