Through a series of moments both intimate and anthemic, Chicago-based Edward & Graham have weaved together a collection of songs that challenge the genre they started in. What was once folk rock with touches of metal has fully melted into a pop rock joyride with their latest EP, Sleep Talk.

Founding members Johnny Edward and Evan Graham formed the group in 2016 on a mission to blend their unique set of influences through flurries of unforgettable riffs and undeniable hooks. Along the way, they captured the attention of SiriusXM, Sofar Sounds and some of Chicago’s most well-known venues. And as their sound, fanbase and live shows grew bigger, the band did too—gaining multi-instrumentalist Keith Dunn and drummer Rob Bordignon.

Now, with a series of new releases ahead of them and a year of studio sessions behind them, they can’t wait to share what they’ve been working on. It’s a collection of songs that shows off every shade of what Edward & Graham has become and lays the groundwork for where they’re headed.
