Artist Information

Biography

Seeking to outdo their self-titled debut CD, this album represents growth and evolution in their style and creative process. Forgotten Song features elaborate vocal harmonies, melodic guitar driven pop elements and lyrics that range from playful to darkly introspective. Red Ed and the Undead is the pop/rock project of composer/front man Ed Able, who is delighted to enlist the aid of his friends and peers as the
Undead. These songs are informed by an enthusiastic obsession with the Beatles, the Smithereens, Colin Hay
(Men At Work), and many other artists.
