Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, an American folk - rock band from Los Angeles, is led by Alex Ebert, formerly of Ima Robot. Their music captures the Hippie era's vibes, similar to the Flaming Lips. Alex Ebert's alter - ego, Edward Sharpe, emerged during his drug rehabilitation. He started creating music alone, using his mouth or a kazoo for horn lines. After meeting Jade Castrinos, they formed the Magnetic Zeroes. Their debut album, Up From Below, was recorded in Laurel Canyon and produced by Aaron Older and Nico Aglietti. Tracks like '40 Day Dream' have an Arcade Fire - Phil Spector feel, 'Come in Please' recalls Love's 'Forever Changes', and 'Home' is a cultural icon heard in many films and ads. This limited - edition record comes on black vinyl, packed in an embossed gatefold sleeve with a 12'x12' 16 - page booklet full of album - making details. It's released by Vagrant Records in 2019 and was reviewed by SHE WANTS REVENGE in 07/2019.
