Raised on candy and bacon bits in the pine peaks o' the west, Ed Masuga is the youngest of 10 children. His drifting family was never satisfied in any one place for too long, and Ed grew up wandering between shacks, motels, casinos, trailers, forests, and barroom kitchens. At two years old he saw his dad compete on the game show "Name That Tune," and though the appearance netted just a washing machine and a trip to Puerto Rico, Ed's future as a traveling musician had been fully inspired.
