About

EDWIN MCCAIN IN CONCERT:

Late-'90s alt-rock mainstay Edwin McCain continues to draw serious crowds anytime he performs his nostalgic guitar-driven tunes in concert. McCain made headlines in 2015 when he signed on to the Animal Planet series Flipping Ships, which follows him as he restores abandoned ocean vessels with his company Boats Have Souls, and the songs he's written for the show have introduced his music to a new generation of fans. At his live shows he's joined by his talented backing group the Edwin McCain Band, which helps him bring nostalgic favorites like "I'll Be" and "I Could Not Ask for More" to life with energetic guitar, bass, keyboards, saxophone, and drums. McCain's husky voice and knack for catchy melodies are as impressive as ever, and the same commitment to craft that has led him to restore boats remains ever-present in his music. Whether he's performing his '90s hits or playing new material written for Flipping Ships, McCain always steers a course of good vibes and great music at his must-see live shows.  

BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:

South Carolina-born Edwin McCain began self-releasing albums in the early '90s and made a name for himself on tour with longtime pals Hootie and the Blowfish. In 1994 he joined Hootie and company on the Atlantic Records roster, making his major label debut the following year with Honor Among Thieves. The album was a moderate success, but McCain's real breakthrough came a few years later with his 1998 sophomore album Misguided Roses. The record spawned "I'll Be," a Top 5 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 that remained a rock radio staple well into the 2000s. He scored another hit in 1999 with "I Could Not Ask for More," the lead single off his third album Messenger. Since then McCain has remained prolific, releasing albums every few years while also launching his reality TV career with the Animal Planet series Flipping Ships. He continues to follow his two passions, splitting his time between restoring dilapidated boats and performing his beloved alt-rock tunes on tour.

    Fantastic

    by Capri63 on 2/15/22The Charleston Music Hall - Charleston

    Local Boy coming home to Charleston and bringing such an amazing talent in Angie Aparo with him, what a night!! This show did not disappoint, Edwin is very engaging with the crowd, funny and very talented. He played all his hits and the sound set up was spot on! The guy on the Sax almost stole the show. A must see.

    Edwin has still got it and a decent venue

    by danfireman384 on 11/24/21Ludlow Garage Cincinnati - Cincinnati

    Edwin, Craig and Larry still have got the magic touch! Well worth the drive from Indianapolis. Wish they would’ve play longer but still awesome! The venue is pretty small and personal. Key point to know … you definitely want to sit in the front section and not the side view. I would never sit there again.

    WOW!

    by Debbie on 11/21/21Ludlow Garage Cincinnati - Cincinnati

    My husband and I traveled about six hours to see Edwin McCain, as that was as far north as his tour would be coming this year. It was well worth the trip. They sounded better than ever!! The music was absolutely phenomenal!

    Nice smaller intimate venue

    by AcuMelissa on 10/17/21Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra Beach

    First time at PV concert hall, venue is nice, intimate, and I would go see another show there. Edwin McCain was great as usual with lots of stories. My one complaint is I wish the ushers/venue had a policy about phones. Being it's so small in there, its super distracting when a girl sitting next to you is on her phone with the screen LIT up for song after song. I wish an usher would have said something. I ended up getting out of my seat and going several rows back sitting in random empty seats to avoid sitting next to an idiot who would rather be on her phone ruining my experience than actually being in the moment.

    Absolutely excellent show

    by Dawn on 10/10/21Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra Beach

    Absolutely excellent show. Edwin is such a talented performer. His voice was pitch perfect and sounded exactly like his recorded music. In between songs he told stories and could be a standup comedian as a second job. We had a great great time

    Great voice and band and great venue. Not one bad seat.

    by Davlei on 10/9/21Ponte Vedra Concert Hall - Ponte Vedra Beach

    Great venue with great sound and close setting. I was not aware of this artist beforehand even though I do know his main hit “I’ll Be”. We enjoyed the concert with his laid back style. Great songs and music, but would probably not go see him again.
