Project Description

Composer and multi-instrumentalist Bill Edwards draws on the roots of American song to create new music that frames and drives great American stories.

His scores and songs have been featured on projects for PBS and commercial television. He’s brought his music to live and lively audiences at concert halls and folk festivals throughout California and the West. Whether it’s working with directors, recording artists, choreographers, or students, his work is about collaborating to turn stories into musical landscapes.

Escape From Death Valley renews an ongoing collaboration between Bill and Kit – their work together has brought amazing stories of the American West to PBS audiences for more than two decades.
