Artist description Edison Gower is a two-man-band with a fondness for the melodic hook. The members share many common musical influences while still managing to bring enough diversity to the table to make the mix interesting. Mark brings his love of Brit-pop and early 90's Shoegazer sounds, while Jake brings an affection for the true singer-songwriter tradition of artists like Aimee Mann, Michael Penn, Jon Brion and Neil Finn. Together they form a unique band with a unique sound. The closest description of Edison Gowers' music has been "a Travis and Aimee Mann sandwich with The Beatles sprinkled on top."
