Performing since the age of eight,  Ed's first gig was performing at St. Joseph's School assembly as "Eddie And The Daydreamers".At 14, Ed was soon playing local dances with his High School band  "Tranquility".
Years of guitar lessons with local  guitar guru Bud Marcil were begining to show promise. At 18, regional club work and studies at Berklee College of Music led to a seventeen month southern tour with Ed's newly formed  John Louis- Edward's band. Extended road trips led to the desire to settle down back home and open a music school that would give others the opportunity to appreciate and enjoy guitar as well.

In September of 1985 Ed realized his dream with                    
the  opening of Antonelli Music Center
located in Medford, MA.   April of 2000 brought
the second location now in N.Andover, MA.
For the past 30 years Ed has taught
thousands of guitarists and
performed nearly 4,000  'gigs' with
his  bands Easy Street ,
The Chase, and currently The Mystics.
In 2002 Ed wrote and produced
a full length  cd entitled Tear down the walls
Currently Ed is writing and recording recoding with
his band The Mystics.
