Born in Toronto in 1976, trumpeter Ellwood Epps lives and works in Boston, where he has worked with Eric Zinman, Gylnis Lomon, Matt Crane, Luther Gray, and Steven Lantner. Epps lived in Montreal for 16 years, where he co-founded the l'Envers venue, the Mardi Spaghetti series, and the Festival of New Trumpet Music Canada.

Ellwood has played on over 100 records, including 40 as leader/co-leader, for labels including Mr. E, Ambiances Magnetiques, &Records, Constellation, VICTO, Rogue Art, Mode, and Bug Incision. He has performed with musicians from many parts of the world, including Steve Lacy, Josh Zubot, William Parker, Michel F Côté, John Butcher, Yves Charuest, Henry Grimes, John Heward, Marshall Allen, Lori Freedman, and Jean Derome.

He has also been active as a trumpet teacher for over 30 years and has led group improvisation workshops across Canada. He cofounded the Studio d'Improvisation de Montréal, which welcomed dozens of musicians from all backgrounds and levels of experience for over a decade.
