| Bio: |
What is Edge of the World (affectionately coined EOTW)? They are a contemporary, acoustic rock band with jazz fusion sprinkled throughout. Who is EOTW? For starters, Todd Helvig is the voice behind the mic, guitarist, bassist, and lyricist for the group. Todd carved out a following as a local (Denver, Co) singer/songwriter, but wanted to expand the sound in new directions. That’s when Charlie Miller walked through the door. Incredibly skilled as a classical pianist and jazz trumpet player, Charlie adds soulful, emotional texture and harmony to the music. Finally, Josh Williamson joined the group on drums, grounding the music in solid rhythms that can be both subtle and intense...or straight up in-your-face.
Their unique sound is undeniable. When you take their individual musical styles and throw them in a blender you get Edge of the World. Transcending typical genres and bending the rules, they have been praised for playing a whole new style of music. It is an extraordinary case of the whole being greater than the sum of its parts. Experience EOTW and hear for yourself.
