Young Edward cranks out some fine Americana bluegrass. --The Daily Lobo
One of the few bluegrass quartets in Albuquerque that plays live regularly at clubs not necessarily known to host bluegrass or old-timey music. A solid mix of traditional numbers, Americana and a few choice covers make Young Edward one of a few bands in town that appeal to a wide audience that includes rock kids and crusty, cynical alt.country aficionados who pine for the days of Uncle Tupelo. --Weekly Alibi
Young Edward makes a point of renovating old music, retaining the roots but grafting new influences onto the trunk. … They've also been known to throw in a heavy metal tune or two that's been ‘downdated.’ --Albuquerque The Magazine Groups like Young Edward … have been able to pack the Albuquerque Press Club or entertain at a growers' market and bring in a whole new demographic that 10 years ago might have not thought twice about bluegrass.
The Growers' Market at Robinson Park is so much more than organic veggies and great art--it's a party. There was a great old timey music/bluegrass band today: Young Edward … and all three played and sang beautifully, alone and in harmony.
[T]hese guys had it all. … I hope to hear more from Young Edward. [T]hey know how to get that beautiful high lonesome sound just right. --WigWamBam |
