Based in the city of Spokane in Washington, Charlie Edwards is a singer-songwriter who, when uploading music to Spotify and discovering five other artists with his name, dubbed his new project I’ve Tried Sleeping instead. Alongside his other band members, they create captivating alternative rock music filtered through their vibrant pop-focused lens.
Having seen it all, over the years Charlie has written a thousand songs, starved, played on the street, played to crowds and survived the explosions and fading of bands. Channeling the sonic aesthetics of bands such as R.E.M. and drawing influence from the songwriting of legendary artists such as Peter Gabriel, James Brown, Paul Simon, Scott Weiland, Bruce Springsteen and of course, Bob Dylan, they craft a timeless and memorable rock sound.
Making their introduction as I’ve Tried Sleeping in September of this year, they released their debut single “Fly High Anyway”. Continuing to drop a series of ten singles that would form their debut eponymous full-length record, they bring us one of those sensational singles with the track titled “Without The Faintest Idea”.
Opened up by a twangy guitar and frontman Charlie Edwards’ hushed vocal delivery before building into a stunning indie rock anthem, on “Without The Faintest Idea” the band offer more of their impeccable songwriting. Full of engrossing melodic leads, charging rhythm and high-octane guitar leads, the fifth single from their debut album sees a new outfit hit the ground running and consistently operate at the top of their game.
