About

Debuting their second album at No. 5 on the Billboard 200, the whimsical and fiercely nonconformist musical group Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros finished up their 2013 summer tour just in time to prepare for their next circuit in the New Year. Known as much for their relentless concert schedule as their recognizable 60s hippie commune sound, Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros are reinvigorating the folk rock music scene alongside occasional tour mates, Mumford and Sons. Expressing a positive, love-one-another vibe while exploring self-image in their music, lead singer Alex Ebert (from Ima Robot) and his many merry cohorts put on energetic live shows that feel both intimate and global. This is no doubt thanks to Ebert’s personal journey, which began with the creation of his alter ego, Edward Sharpe, and his pilgrimage from self-indulgent lovesick drug addict to magnanimous creative.

After strapping on the mantle of Mr. Sharpe, Ebert collected childhood friends, musicians and Jade Castrinos, a one-time sweetheart who shares the vocals in the wildly popular single “Home,” among others, and began playing shows in 2007. In 2009, they toured the nation in a white school bus. Now boasting three full-length albums, including “Up From Below,” “Here” and their recent self-titled work, the collective intends to release some B-sides before completing a fourth album. Though fans may have to wait to hear the next selection of avant-garde musical pieces, they can buy tickets to a show that’s almost certainly coming to a city near them soon. Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros are undeniably unique in appearance, stage presence and sound, and the deliriously happy disciples have an enchanting effect, even when played through car speakers.

    Keep trying

    by M. on 8/20/19Greek Theatre - Los Angeles

    The Greek is a Fantastic venue, but, it needs to up its game like the Hollywood Bowl. More patio seating, inside snd out. Better menus, better landscaping. I see some improvements, just not enough.

    Always a good show at the Greek!

    by SallyAnn on 8/12/19Greek Theatre - Los Angeles

    I finally got to see Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes!! Loved them!! They played all my favorite songs and had a lot of interaction with the crowd. The Greek is probably my very favorite venue. Easy parking (unlike its neighbor), friendly employees, awesome scenery, and great food and drink selections. Had an awesome time!!!

    Amazing first concert experience

    by Anniekathy on 7/16/16Thompson's Point - Portland

    This was my first concert ever attended. I didn't know what to expect. The opening act, Wild Belle, was really good, it got me excited for the performance. And then, when all of the members of ESMG walked on stage I almost cried. The concert was full of positive vibes and happy people. Alex, the lead singer, interacted with the audience members A LOT, going down into the crowd often, talking to people, taking requests e.t.c.

    Fun!

    by TheWindCriesMary on 7/15/16Thompson's Point - Portland

    E.Sharpe was such a good time! Over half of the concert was just requests from the audience. They just had fun playing, and the audience was feeling it too, it went hand in hand. If they come back around, I would most certainly come again!

    Disappointed

    by UsedToLoveThem on 7/14/16Shelburne Museum - Shelburne

    I've seen Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros numerous times. The first time was years ago and they were absolutely INCREDIBLE. The second time was equally as fantastic. The last time I saw them Jade was still with them but Alex was clearly high the entire show and could barely play. It was still an OK show. This time it was a complete "Alex" show and he has to be on drugs. Lots of rambling that didn't make sense, ambivalence over playing their old hits so he ended them mid-song, pretending as if he didn't remember the words. And, in some older songs, stopped mid-song to ramble. When he was singing his old songs, he tried to put a twist on them so they sounded off-key and just horrible. For his new music, everything was buttoned up and played through to try to impress but no one was impressed - the new music is not an evolution.

    Up close and personal

    by bcmjr on 6/20/16Greek Theatre-U.C. Berkeley - Berkeley

    I had low expectations going into this concert after reading several reviews of the band without Jade, but I was pleasantly surprised. Alex was highly engaged and came out into the crowd to sing on several songs. Good mix of old and new songs.
