About Edward Crowther
Somewhere in the mix of hard rock, indie rock, pop punk, and folk, you’ll find Edward Crowther’s sound and style. Edward is an original hard rock guitarist and fully independent artist currently residing in Charlotte, NC. He launched his solo career in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, shortly after the end of his first official band, Burban, which started his music career back in 2016. Since the launch of his solo career, Edward has released six singles, which has included notable hits such as ‘California Cruisin’,’ ‘High School Fever,’ ‘Mystery,’ ‘Snake Groove,’ and others. Edward’s platform as an artist is rather unique in that he sits as the ultimate visionary for all his music. He writes most, if not all of the drum, bass, guitar, and vocal/lyric parts for his songs. However, primarily being a guitarist, he does not sing on most of his tracks or live, with the exception of his song ‘Twenty.’ Instead, he enlists the help of different vocalist to help piece together his sonic visions. With his sound being mostly driven by his iconic and recognizable guitar tone and playing, Edward’s music offers listeners a uniquely familiar sound while still bringing something new, spanning multiple genres of rock and offering listener’s a chance to experience an artist destined to make his mark in the rock world.
Additionally, Edward performs his catalog with his band under ‘Edward Crowther & Band,’ which features Jayson Zessin (vocals), Omari Aquart (bass), and Jaime Armendariz (drums). Collectively, Edward and his band are one of the hottest new rock acts on the scene, continuously delivering electric and high energy rock shows that haven’t been seen since some of the great rock acts of the past.
Touring History
Since launching his music career in 2016, Edward has played dozens of shows across North and South Carolina, gracing notable venues such as Petra’s Bar, the Pour House Music Hall, Jack’s Live, the Black Flower, Deep South the Bar, Imurj, and many more. Alongside his band, Edward offers a dynamic setlist, featuring up to an hour of material that mainly focuses on his original catalog—highlighted by tracks like ‘California Cruisin’’ and ‘High School Fever’—but blends uniquely reinvented cover songs from Velvet Revolver, the Bee Gees, the Verve, Lustra, Guns N’ Roses, and many others.
