Edensong is a New York-based orchestral progressive rock band formed in 2004. Their 2008 debut album, The Fruit Fallen, and 2009/2010
festival performances have received much praise within the progressive rock community.
Edensong formed at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut in 2002. The band began as a collaboration between two students, drummer
Matt Cozin, and singer/songwriter James Schoen. The two later joined forces with guitarist Ben Wigler, a former band mate and childhood friend
of Schoen's, under the name "Echoes of Eden." The band’s debut production was an epic rock-opera, entitled “Beyond Eden,” performed at
Wesleyan University in April 2003. The composition included a full rock band, orchestral instruments, a choir, and an African drumming
ensemble.
