Orbiting the US for their 11th year around the circuit, cosmic country jam band Edge of the West continues to expand its range and influence, and its musical horizons. Their intrepid expeditions have taken them from Arizona to Alaska, Colorado to the Kona coast of Hawaii, bringing their psychedelic outlaw dance party to some of America’s most remote, adventurous and colorful venues and festivals. Featuring members with long resumes backing the greats of country, rock and bluegrass, the band cooks up an Americana stew of influences with a decidedly West Coast 70’s vibe. All members sing and write, as they mix their audience-beloved originals with a huge catalog of eclectic covers, interesting chestnuts, rarities and songs by other allies on the front.
