Holt Farm, Prospect Hill
Ed Jurdi listened to his father's eclectic music collection and began to show a musical interest at age 2 1/2, which his family encouraged by buying him a guitar. At Andover High he started the popular band Dr Head's Rhythm and Blues Revival which played a "lot of old rock-and-roll and old soul stuff," according to Jurdi. 1999 he released his first CD ''Ed Jurdi'', a collection of 9 self-composed songs. In 1999 he was performing about 20 shows a month, mostly in New Hampshire, but he returned to Andover to play more roots inspired music in November 1999. He has said that his music doesn't fit into a specific category, but he "doesn't really mind what category poeple stuff him in, as long as they keep listening and he can keep playing."
