Ed Briggs is a New York Painter and Set Decorator on Law & Order. He’s been exposing me to new music since I was a pesky teen, but in this interview he rises to the challenge of songs from his past that inspired him in his art and love for music. What might appear to be a quieter Ed in this first segment, you’ll see is not the case as we see in the second segment when he opens up with some crashier pieces by The Pixies and Blur.
