Hamell typically describes his style semi-ironically as punk rock. Righteous Babe Records explains the use of the term as "loud, fast music informed by politics, passion, energy and intelligence, played by a guy with a sharp tongue and a wicked sense of humor". Other frequent labels include "Punk acoustic" and "anti-folk". Ed was brought to Anchorage through Whistling Swan Productions.
