EDPIERCE

Biography

Born under the influence of mainstream R&B, Philly soul, and pop music, R&B artist EdPierce began the groundwork for his latest release, "The Evolution of a Man" in the city of brotherly love. In the tradition of many great artists, EdPierce began singing in his church gospel choir. At a young age, he would perform with the world renowned Philadelphia Boys Choir, where he received professional vocal training and traveled the globe performing at some of the world's most prestigious venues.

During his teen years, what began as a love for singing quickly became a passion. This passion led EdPierce to enter and win many talent contests within the Philadelphia area. EdPierce's enthusiasm & tireless pursuit of his dream attracted many people. One such person, an agent, believed in EdPierce's dream of stardom so much that he guided this talented entertainer to successful auditions for roles on "The Cosby Show" and "Amen" as well as invitations to perform at various venues and events.

In addition to his incredible voice, EdPierce was also a highly recruited athlete. He decided to enroll at Fordham University in New York City, the heart of the entertainment world, so he could increase his knowledge and pursue his passion. At Fordham, he excelled on the football field, achieving both All-Conference and Pre-Season All-America status, but became known for his on-stage performances.

After graduating from Fordham, he continued to write and seek out some of New York's hottest spots to showcase his vocal skills. After a number of performances at some of New York's most respected venues, including Café Wha? and the famed Apollo Theatre, EdPierce began to work with various music producers, in hopes of putting together the perfect demo that would catch the attention of the major labels. Never being quite satisfied with the end product, EdPierce took the road less traveled. He looked to connect with another producer, one who could bring out the best in his songs. As fate would have it, Edwin Ramos, Jr., one of the music industry's most talented upcoming producers appeared on the scene.

Finding exactly what he was looking for in a producer, EdPierce signed with Esome Music Entertainment and chose to have Edwin Ramos produce his entire debut album, "The Evolution of a Man". EdPierce collaborated with Edwin Ramos to create the project, bringing a fresh and unique style to a music industry filled with sameness. "The Evolution of a Man" showcases EdPierce's vocal versatility as well as his captivating writing style.

The tracks on this album are laced with lessons for today's society, on evolving both in spirit and in character to a man. The album opens with the up tempo melody "Playa Games" to the soulful, "Lost Without Your Love" culminating with the emotional ballad, "Did You Know?" The first single, "I Think About You", is a R&B ballad wrought with feeling which fuses a little ol' school groove with a contemporary vibe.

The world is sure to stand up and take notice as EdPierce takes R&B to a new evolution of soul.
