Eddie Star Photograph by Marisha Camp

Eddie Star grew up in a Rock-n-Roll dream of Hollywood smoke and California sunshine.  As a teenager, he put on his leather jacket, grabbed his guitar, and began working with producer Arthur G. Wright.  In 1996 he formed the Zero Effect, and later in the 00s JoyBox, releasing the albums “Generation Zero” “Informal Deviance (13 Sexational Songs),” and an EP, “Live From Hollywood.”

Eddie Star remains a dynamic force across entertainment and culture. He has a podcast, “The College of Rock-n-Roll Knowledge,” which takes listeners on a journey through his stories and experience in the world of Rock-n-Roll.  His music provided the foundation for Philip Paul Kelly‘s successful Off-Broadway Rock-n-Roll Spectacle, “Rockquiem For A Wrestler,” in which he performed.  Star also appears on the Original Cast Recording, now streaming and available on CD.

Fiercely independent, Star founded Ton-Up Records, a thriving independent enterprise producing music, film, and new media.  Eddie Star continues performing and recording, recently releasing a single, “Science Fiction/Double Feature,” and a music video streaming everywhere.  Perhaps the following quote best sums him up: “Eddie Star has never wavered in his absolute belief in rock-n-roll. In a post- post-post-punk era, he is steadfast, sticking to his guns, and writing unapologetic, fearless punk songs that would make his heroes proud.”
