This New York-based band can trace its origins back to 2002, and the core members of the band actually worked together in a band back in the 1990’s. They released their debut album, “The Fruit Fallen,” in 2008. The qualities of which secured them a slot at the prestigious ProgDay festival in 2009, as well as appearances at the Three Rivers Progressive Rock festival the same year and Canadian festival Terra Incognita the year after. In 2010 they also released the EP “Echoes of Edensong”.
Edensong’s current line-up consists of founding member James Byron Schoen (vocals, guitars), Tony Waldman (drums, percussion), Stefan Paolini (keyboards), TD Towers (bass) and Barry Seroff (flute). When they reached out to record labels for a possible release of their new album, they quickly landed an agreement with noteworthy US label The Laser’s Edge. “Years in the Garden of Years” is the name of their latest CD, which was released in the fall of 2016 to high praise for it’s eclectic, enthralling qualities, with comparisons made towards bands as different as Jethro Tull and Dream Theater.
Edensong is still a fairly young band, but with two strong albums to their name and now signed to a noted label, we believe that they will be going places quickly. Their qualities as a live band are well proven, and we’re looking forward to seeing them perform for us as the second to last band at ROSfest 2017.
