Edison will premiere new line-up and new songs at Kung Fu Necktie on 4/27
At the start of 2013 a band called Edison drifted into Philly with a debut EP called Living Room and a handful of shows. Founded by locals Michael James Murray and Alexander Savoth, the duo crafted roaming soundscapes that incorporated string sections with quietly jazzy drums and large-room production that still kept things intimate with closely placed vocals.
Following several months of solo work by Murray and Savoth that coincided with a new approach to Edison, the band is back with an expanded line-up and new material, ready to hit the stage again at Kung Fu Necktie on Sunday, April 27th. Chris Giraldi joins on drums and Bennet Daniels (Neighborhood Choir, Hippy Johnny) takes control of the bass, bringing new perspectives and possibilities to a band that already reached aural moments of Air and Radiohead. Tickets and information for the 21+ show with Marc Neibauer and HLEP can be found here. Listen back to last year’s EP below.
