Edward Guglielmino

Press bio Love him or hate him Edward Guglielmino is an artist people talk about. Whether it be about his constant online bantering, 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. Now after a two year recording project with Brisbane producer Matt Redlich, Ed G. is finally ready to put the music where his mouth is with his latest album Late At Night.

Love him or hate him Edward Guglielmino is an artist people talk about. Whether it be about his constant online bantering, 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. Now after a two year recording project with Brisbane producer Matt Redlich, Ed G. is finally ready to put the music where his mouth is with his latest album Late At Night.

Not so much a rebel as simply someone intent on doing things his own way ? his own way has been until earlier this year ? him playing solo or occasionally with a likeminded guest, 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 is Late At Night. Still, not completely abandoning the charm and luxury of time that comes with home recording, several of the vocal takes were literally done late at night in the semi-permanent recording facility producer Redlich set up in Ed's home with the aim to achieve the desired mood that was sometimes hard to capture in the studio.

The result is an album that breathes with ease, swaying through musings of life from the opening frames of ?Caught In A Landslide' and the sceptical ?Fail With Me', to the radio-charm of ?Rhythm Of Life' and the striking ?Lion In Your Bed'.

Later parts of the album highlight Ed's reign against the conventional with the revealing, self portrayal as the ?prodigal son' on ?No Body Is Perfect' , and then abandoning convention altogether with the haunting ?Take Me Home Tonight' featuring a lead vocal by actress Nicoletta Panebianco.

Overall, Late At Night is as uncompromised as it is realised, delivering a stunning cohesive piece of work that leaves you feeling like you know the artist more than most albums allow.

Due for immediate release on November 1st, 2008, plans are in place for an official release in February 2009 involving distribution, single and video release, further promotion of the album and additional shows with full band.
