Ed Wool

Ed Wool is an American guitarist from Watertown, New York. According to the Watertown Daily Times [1] , he has had several bands that have been very popular in the Northeast of the U.S., and Europe. Hailed by producers Mike Joyce, David Rosner, and Margo Guryan as a world class guitarist, singer, song writer and arranger, he has recorded on seven major record labels. In the 1980s he moved to Albany, New York and has continued writing, recording, and leading The Ed Wool Band.

Ed Wool and The Nomads was an American rock band from Watertown, NY. The band was active and popular in the Central New York and North Country, New York areas in the mid and late 1960s. The group covered popular hits of the day and were in high demand at bars and clubs as well as high school and community dances. Teens and young people could be counted on to flock to any performance by Ed Wool and The Nomads dressed as impeccably as The Beatles themselves were in that period. In return, the young crowd could count on a four hours of well-rehearsed, polished, loud and faithful covers of the familiar, chart-topping tunes. There was always lots of dancing and lots of requests.

There were many bands in the Watertown area, including artists such as Bob and Dick Kissel and Joe and Al Bouchard who later helped form Blue Oyster Cult, but Ed Wool and The Nomads were generally regarded as the best of the best.
