Blues rocker Jeremy Edge announces new double album ‘Saints and Souls Vol. 1 and 2’ and shares new single “Move On” featuring Derek Sherinian out on Dec 2nd. Saints and Souls Volume 1 and Volume 2 drops December 23rd.
After four top 50 Active Rock singles with Candlelight Red, Jeremy Edge launched The Jeremy Edge Project in 2020, making a departure stylistically with more blues-based, guitar-based rock.
“Move On” is the kind of straight-ahead blues/rock song that will get you a speeding ticket. Edge walks tall on guitar and vocals, owning the track with his presence. His lead work is tuneful and bold and his rhythm playing is solidly in the pocket. Derek Sherinian drops in to rip some formidable organ licks, as well, which adds another strong instrumental element to the song. Jeremy Edge clearly has his vision and sound together and is ready to rock the world with it. You’re going to want to be part of it all.
After extensive gigging in 2021 including dates with Lita Ford, Jackyl, Randy Hansen, Derek St Holmes and Gary Hoey, Jeremy Edge and crew are back with their sophomore effort Saints and Souls, being released in two volumes. This record was more than a year in the making, recorded and mixed in different locations and is in the spirit of the classic rock and blues albums that first inspired Jeremy to play. The album contains artwork and lyrical imagery inspired by New Orleans and some of the stories and folklore surrounding it. It is named as a tip of the hat to the Haitian traditions of “All Saints Day” and “All Souls Day” as a means of celebrating life and those who have passed. There is a recurring theme of light and dark and a struggle to overcome adversity. Some are personal stories, some are about modern times, and some are based on fiction and folklore but all have this recurring theme.
