Edward John O’Brien (born April 15, 1968, in Oxford, England) is a member of Radiohead. He plays guitar and is responsible for harmony vocals during live concerts and on many tracks from the band’s albums. He was ranked number 60 on Rolling Stone’s 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time.

He is the tallest member of the band, at 6’ 5“ or 195cm (no other band members exceed 6 feet tall). Ed has a wife named Susan and a son, Salvador, born in January 2004 and daughter, Oona, born in early 2006.

Ed is known for his large collection of effects pedals, which are important in creating Radiohead’s distinct sound. Even on tracks that do not feature any guitar work, his pedals are put to use for other purposes, such as altering Thom Yorke’s vocals (he along with Jonny Greenwood use the Korg Kaoss Pad). Though he served primarily as a rhythm guitarist on the earlier albums, Radiohead’s migration beyond alternative rock instrumentation often saw fellow guitarist Jonny Greenwood called on to play keyboards, the modular synthesizer, or the Ondes Martenot, moving Ed to the forefront as Radiohead’s chief guitarist. He is a self-taught guitarist, but took drum lessons and is an accomplished drummer, though his only drum works for Radiohead to date have been the auxiliary drums on Hail to the Thief track „There There“, a task he shared with Jonny Greenwood, and an additional drum piece on the b-side „Pearly“.
