Described by Time Out Magazine as a composer whose projects and performances range from being "evocative of epic cinematic scores combined with lyrical intimacy...", to immersive soundscapes, Mary Edwards intersperses themes of temporality, impermanence, nostalgia, longing and the natural world throughout her work. Her extended discography includes the solo releases, A Smile in the Mind (2007), Console (2010), Eastern/Central & Mountain/Pacific (2012), and the forthcoming works Natural Anthem (2018), The Space Between: A Sound Trilogy and Endeavour: A Space Trilogy (inspired by the Space Shuttle mission of NASA astronaut, Dr. Mae C. Jemison), where she captures the essence of '60s soundtracks, Ambient Music, and classic pop, thinking in terms of "miniature movies" to create pocket symphonies and an indelible, sprawling landscape of sound. In November 2017, she will release Everyday Until Tomorrow, her fourth studio album, a conceptual "soundtrack" for an imagined television series set in a 1960s-era NYC airport.

Throughout her career, Mary Edwards' credits include sessions and projects as a composer for film, promos and commercials and environmental/architectural sound installations.
