In addition to his paintings, Edge has ventured into documentary filmmaking, capturing these folk customs in film, and his visual art has been used in music videos and album artwork for various artists. His debut solo album, "New Tradition," was released on Vinyl on Glass Modern Records, reflecting his deep connection with British folklore through music.
