Eddie Lund (October 12, 1909 – December 4, 1973) was a pianist and bandleader.
He grew up in Vancouver, Washington, USA, and later moved to Oregon where he worked as a pianist. He later moved to Tahiti in either 1936 or 1938 where he stayed permanently and published and released many records.[1] He was the leader of a popular band, Eddie Lund and His Tahitians which released records on the ABC-Paramount, Decca[2] and Tahiti labels. He picked up the Tahitian language quickly and secured a residence at Quinns night club in Papeete.
Much of Tahiti's music has been written by him.[3] Lund has been referred to as the Irving Berlin of Island music[4] and the father of modern Tahitian folk music. He died in 1973.[1]
