“Neighbourhood enigma, dancin’ Edward Guglielmino is up next, the twanging reverb’d and glittering guitar, coupled with Ed’s sweet and low voice necessitates inclusion on a John Huges film’s soundtrack. Cure and Smiths-type melodies, sans posturing, soaring vocal harmonies and booming stadium pop manage to distract from the fact that Ed’s guitar strap is on backwards (who does that?). Midway through the set the band brings the noise to a heavier number, and the whole thing is bloody lovely.” - Time Off Magazine
“Brisbane’s answer to Robert Smith.. a fascinating character: vulnerable and against-the-grain and possessed of an inner belief that has nothing to do with peers. His mother really ought to stop comparing him to a younger me (20 years younger) though - Ed's going to amount to way more than that!"
- Direct quote
"Late At Night is a powerful statement, one that repays careful listening." Noel Mengel - Courier Mail
- The Courier Mail
"Edward Guglielmino continued staking his claim as the natural successor of the quirky, clever guitar-pop crown for which Brisbane has become famous. He’s got the book smart looks, the enigmatic obfuscation of his bio, the delicious pop hooks with hints of piss-taking..." - Faster Louder

Bio
Love him or hate him Edward Guglielmino is an artist people talk about. Whether it be about his constant online bantering (featured on edg.ug and collapseboard.com) , an endless run of east coast and international touring or his unique style of avant-garde crooning, the last couple of years have seen the artist be the centre of conversation on many an occasion.
Not so much a rebel as simply someone intent on doing things his own way; whimsically re-interpreting his songs from gig to gig, writing, recording and uploading from all corners of the globe, pausing regularly to collate an official release made up of a mix of bedroom and even hotel recordings.
But, like any good artist, his way has now evolved. Evolved from the indie-kid mix of bedroom and hotel recordings to the fully produced and realised affair that was Late At Night.
Dubbed The Show, EdÂ’s permanent studio and stage band are a collective of Brisbane talent featuring Rowley Cowper on bass, Lucas Arundell on guitar and and Skinny JeanÂ’s Samuel D. Schlencker on drums.
Edward's second full length album is currently underway with Jamie Treveskis (Timothy Carroll, Texas Tea) and is due for release in late 2011.
