Edward Sharpe and The Magnetic Zeros formed in 2007 after singer Alex Ebert met fellow singer Jade Castrinos outside a cafe in downtown Los Angeles. They cultivated a hazy, California desert sound laced with nostalgia, and in 2009 the 10-member troupe released their debut album Up From Below, which featured the universally appealing hit “Home,” as well as fan favorites “40 Day Dream” and “Janglin.” The past few years have been spent touring the world while winning over audiences at festivals like Coachella, Bonnaroo, Lollapalooza, Leeds, and Austin City Limits. The band released their follow-up album Here in 2012, featuring “Man On Fire” and “That’s What’s Up.” Their third album is expected to be released in early 2013.
