Edgewood Heavy Live at Martin's Downtown October 11 | 10 pm | Presented by Rybolt Productions
Since bursting onto the Atlanta music scene, edgy and soulful, Edgewood Heavy has blazed a path all its own. Their unique genre of Rock N Soul, a term the band coined to describe their rarefied sound, is at the heart of the band's identity and musical style. The four-piece rock band led by the two dynamic, and passionate frontmen, have been likened to "a mixture of the Rolling Stones, The Black Keys, and Outkast," and have taken the nation's southeast music scene by storm. Their popularity has seen the band perform on NPR's "Sounds like ATL" segment by WABE, open for David Ryan Harris, play with lady Nicole Wray at the One Music Festival, which attracts more than 50,000 fans every year, and perform at the Wire and Wood Fest, Stone Mountain Soul Fest, and Inman Park Fest to name just a few. They have also hosted their Atlanta music festival 'Edgewoodstock' for two years and collaborated with local brewery "Soul Brothers" to create their beer, 'Edgewood Hefe.' After their debut album release, '$ex Drugs & Rock N Soul,' the band is continuing to give fans what they long for: more new music and more live shows. Coming off the heels of their ‘Electric Summer Tour’, promoting their single "Drunk" you can currently catch them on their fall tour now promoting their newest release, "500k Miles."

“Everything about Edgewood Heavy is unique, from our Rock N Soul musical style, to the way we look on stage, even the fact that all of our songs are self-produced,” explains Gio, one of Edgewood Heavy's dynamic frontmen. “Everyone these days talks about artificial intelligence, computerization, and automation, we're the opposite of that. Soul and rock music has always been about the expression of deep emotion, with no two performances of the song ever being exactly the same. That's why we only have live instruments on our album. We wanted to showcase the authenticity of what it's like to be at one of our shows.”
