Ed Hanley began his tabla training in Toronto, Canada with Ritesh Das, and has studied with master drummers Swapan Chaudhuri and Anindo Chatterjee. His interest in all aspects of Indian classical rhythm have led him to study outside of the Hindustani tabla tradition as well, focusing on Karnatic vocal percussion and drumming traditions. He has studied mrdangam repertoire and Karnatic rhythm theory with Karaikudi Mani, and solkattu, kanjira, mrdangam repertoire and improvisation with Dr. Trichy Sankaran. Ed has performed across Canada, the USA, Europe and India in a variety of world, jazz and classical settings with artists and ensembles including Autorickshaw, The Toronto Tabla Ensemble, The Penderecki Quartet and Jane Bunnett and the Spirits of Havana. Ed has composed, produced, and engineered a number of compositions for dance including works by Nova Bhattacharya, Peggy Baker, Roberto Campanella, Natasha Bakht, Jenn Goodwin, Mitch Kirsch, Gitanjali Kolanad and Menaka Thakkar. Ed has co-produced three Autorickshaw albums with Suba Sankaran, including the critically acclaimed, JUNO nominated CDs, Four Higher and So The Journey Goes.
