ED RAWLINGS (Hostages, Die Bossa Nova) Announces Debut Solo Album A FOOLISH INCONSISTENCY
Instrumental rock musician and San Francisco Bay Area music scene veteran ED RAWLINGS brings decades of material to life with his debut solo album A FOOLISH INCONSISTENCY. With an eclectic mix of songs ranging from pop, to blues, and even a little surf and Americana, A FOOLISH INCONSISTENCY is decades in the making.
Produced by Bay Area veteran producer/engineer Michael Rosen (Rancid, AFI, Green Day) at East Bay Recorders in Oakland, A FOOLISH INCONSISTENCY is available November 1, 2024.
ED RAWLINGS has been playing in the Bay Area for over forty years, beginning in the eighties as lead guitarist for local punk and new wave legends Hostages and Die Bossa Nova, as well as the instrumental band Lost Lake. In his three decades as a touring musician, Rawlings has played at notable clubs such as Mabuhay Gardens, Sound of Music, The Palms, The Stone, Berkeley Square, and more. Plus, who could forget their infamous South-of-Market loft parties?
Ed and Hostages lead singer Ray Vaughn went on to form the band Die Bossa Nova in 1985 with a new set of songs. They continued to play in the San Francisco new wave scene at the DNA Lounge, Club 9, the I-Beam, the 181 Club, The Kennel Club, and more. They also made two appearances at the annual San Francisco Folsom Street Fair. Ed reunited with singer/songwriter Ray Vaughn in 2013 to back him up on his new solo adventure, playing guitar on the Ray Vaughn albums Way Down Low and Wounded Bird.
