It turns out that Thomas Wolfe was wrong. You can, indeed, go home again. At least metaphorically, especially if going home means you’re a musician who’s getting back together with old friends to make music again. First there was a band called Edge, a quartet of teens in Larchmont, New York, who formed in 1973, initially covering songs by the likes of the Allman Brothers and Jeff Beck, then moved on to more challenging material by Return to Forever and the Mahavishnu Orchestra. 

By 1975 Edge called it quits and guitarist Bob Windbiel, drummer Mark Macksoud, bass man Paul Adamy, and the last member to join, keyboardist Lee Feldman, eventually finding careers in other musical settings. 

Now, EDGE is back, after releasing their first album together, Keep Me Around.   EDGE is better than ever & ready to rock the house! In their own classic way, of course.
