"Urgent and inspiring, the band's third album conveys optimism and celebration"
- USA Today
"Edward
Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros are nothing if not champions of free
love and the carefree sounds of the '60s and '70s. Only this time the
sizable group is embracing the bygone era with an extra dose of grit and
soul."
- Billboard
"The sincerity and intoxicating joy that have made the indie band so popular remains."
- W Magazine
"The choral and brass arrangements are rich... and the grooves lope and boogie hard."
- Rolling Stone
"Revealing
itself as cohesive and multilayered, the album presents itself as an
art piece, dripping with corn-fed Americana and psychedelic musings."
- Ladygunn Magazine
LOS ANGELES, CA - JULY 23, 2013 - Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros' new
self-titled album is out today via Community Music. The twelve track
album was produced by frontman Alex Ebert who shared, "These songs mean
everything to me. It's the rawest, most liberated, most rambunctious
stuff we've done". The band will return to The Late Show with David
Letterman for a performance tomorrow night at 11:35pm / 10:35 CST (check
your local listings). See below for a complete list of live dates or click HERE.
Edward
Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros formed in 2007 after singer Alex Ebert
met fellow singer Jade Castrinos outside of a cafe in downtown Los
Angeles. In 2009 the 10-member troupe released their debut album Up From Below which
featured the hit "Home" as well as fan favorite's "40 Day Dream" and
"Janglin". The band has spent the past few years touring the world while
winning over audiences at festivals like Coachella, Bonnaroo,
Lollapalooza, Leeds, Austin City Limits and more. Their follow up album,
Here, was released in May 2012 and featured the tracks "Man On
Fire" and "That's What's Up." The album debuted at #1 on the
Independent Music Chart and #5 on Billboard Top 200 Chart the week after
it's release. Relix Magazine hailed it as "an album full of undeniable
folk-rock hooks, gospel overtones, infectious lyrics, orchestral swells
and a whole lot of love." Entertainment Weekly declared, "...they've got
so much heart, they can crush hipster irony with one squeeze of the
accordion." The album was listed at number seven on Rolling Stone's
"Best Albums of 2012" List.
