Review: Edward Sharpe & Magnetic Zeros at the Beaumont Club
Think of it as a world class, southern revival lounge act…
Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros preached to a packed – but not capacity – crowd at the Beaumont Club Saturday for 96.5 The Buzz’s annual Halloweenie Roast. A handful of concertgoers went all out and costumed up along with two female band members who sported fake mustaches for a song or two.
You know who Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros are, right?
They have that one great, infectious hit song on the NFL commercial (“Home”), and that other one on that car commercial (“Janglin”).
The band consists of two guitars, two keyboards, bass, two percussionists, a trumpet, an occasional accordion, and of course, Mr. Sharpe himself (a.k.a. Alex Ebert) who usually plays a tambourine against his chest.
