Classically trained California-born and Berlin-based singer, songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and
producer Ed Prosek embarks on an internal journey just as fascinating as the external trip. After
success from his previous releases and praise from Wonderland, Earmilk and Atwood Magazine,
he ponders his place in the world on his new EP, The Foreigner [Nettwerk].
Growing up with a Czech father and an Italian mother, Prosek's family roots always reached
towards the old world. At eight-years-old, he picked up and studied classical trumpet until the age
of twenty, before attending the San Francisco Conservatory of Music. He eventually lived in the
UK for a spell before finding his way to Berlin.
Following a few independent releases, 2016’s Truth EP yielded the fan favorite “Holy
Water,” followed by the Flesh & Blood, Pt. 1 EP in 2017, highlighted by “The Mountain.” He
maintained his momentum with Light As A Feather EP [2019] and singles such as “One Man’s
Blessing,” “4AM,” “The Other Side,” and “The Garden.”
Ed Prosek hones his signature style, striking a balance between chamber orchestration,
Americana storytelling, and pop, dependent on his deft instrumentation and songcraft. All of these
experiences and sounds have made Prosek who he is on The Foreigner. “Right now, I’m the best
and happiest version of myself. I feel empowered to do what I was put here to do, which is write
music.”
