| Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros |
At first glance, there seems little about Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros that should work as a successful and popular rock group. Yet everything about this 11+ member group that very closely resembles street people works remarkably. Alex Ebert commands the stage and the audience (which he is sometimes in) with his energy and hippie vibe. It is the closest I’ve ever felt to being part of the 60’s and 70’s concerts my father once experienced.

Their songs are infections, especially Home, which had the entire crowd dancing, whistling, and singing along. I am never entirely sure if Alex is outrageously drugged up, bat shit crazy or both. Whatever it is, he is fun to watch and they are a band always worth seeing in concert.
