This is some epically far-out hippie freakery from the much tipped Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros. The up to 12 strong American ensemble have promised to make a video for every track on their AU approved debut album Up From Below. Put together the videos should comprise one full-length musical film. Part One is 'Desert Song'. It's supposedly about Alex Ebert's [AKA Edward Sharpe's] reckoni...

A lot of people give Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros an unfair rap. The 11-piece band drives around in a converted school bus and plays music like it’s 1969 all over again. It has all the cult-aspects of The Polyphonic Spree with a more folksy feel. Is that so wrong? I guess I can [...]

I've just (really recently) gotten my hand's on Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zero's new album Up From Below. The band stopped by Letterman the other night to play the jangling neo-americana folk revival tune "Home" which is definitely one of the album's highlights.

About 2 months ago I wrote a post about the wonderful and energetic songs from the folk group Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros. I am always mesmerized to the energy and chemistry they demonstrate when playing live shows. This is a video of their performance to the Late Night Show with David Letterman.Edward Sharpe [...]

Firing out of LA, this 10 piece mass of folk/hippie music delivers a damn enjoyable debut without the help of anyone named Edward Sharpe. Alex Ebert is the leader of this hot mess of hair, sandals, flowly dresses and patchouli (that part was just an educated guess). They sound like they should be reliving their [...]

This blog’s full name is pinched almost word for word from the excellent Tom Wolfe book ‘The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test‘. In it (if I recall correctly) Ken Kesey urges his gang of Merry Pranksters to descend on towns and infiltrate their mentality like ‘Cougar microbes marching in like army ants...’It feels like for the [...]

The song "40 Day Dream" is about a dream so good that narrator Alex Ebert refuses to wake up—"the magical mystery kind," he sings. Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros—a Los Angeles-based group comprised of Ebert and nine other musicians—make music along those same lines: it's so infectious you won't be able to turn it off. Seeped in soulful Stax-style melodies and orchestra-caliber percussion
