Ed Ferrell

Driven, resourceful and adaptable Live Sound Engineer with a strong technical skillset and a collaborative, client-focused approach. Combining academic training in physics and a Live Sound Engineering qualification from the ICMP with hands-on experience working alongside a high-end PA rental company and an industry-leading lighting and video supplier. With a proven practical background spanning venue sound installations, multi-room live events and festival setups (including Glastonbury Festival), I am eager to apply my expertise, sharp acoustic intuition and strong work ethic to a dedicated live audio role.
