J.P. Edwards: The “Hearticulate” EP brings forth an abundance of emotions as you listen to it!

J.P. Edwards is a singer-songwriter originally from Texarkana, Texas. Much of his childhood was spent traveling around the country with his family. These experiences and the solitude they often demanded cultivated in him a desire to write as a means of processing his emotions and describing his ever-changing environments. He began singing and writing music at an early age and has worked for the greater part of his life to refine and develop his craft.

This is only the beginning of his career, but momentum is building as more and more people discover his fresh take on the singer-songwriter genre. His latest single, “World Tour,” was released on iTunes, Amazon, and Google Play in March 2015, and his EP “Hearticulate” will be released October 16, 2015 with Artistry Entertainment Group.

With the amount of music created every day in the society we live in, you would expect to find more masterfully pieced together albums. J.P. Edwards’ “Hearticulate” EP is nothing less than musical genius. He stands so far above the norm. His songs are soothing, energetic, and full of emotion – the kind of emotion that abandoned music back in the late 60’s. As someone who appreciates well-crafted musicianship from serious singer-songwriters, J.P. Edwards has certainly made an extremely positive impression on me. His voice moves you along with the support of an articulate acoustic guitar and some elegantly arranged, and exquisitely played music.

But apart from being really good at his craft, his possibilities are endless as he’ll only get better and better. The minute I press play on “Destinations”, the melodic magic sets in. If you are looking for a euphoric, feel-good escape, then this is it. “Hearticulate” brings forth an abundance of emotions as you listen to it. You’ll feel happy, sad, and everything in between, which is not the effect that most albums have. The energy throughout is contagious. And after the first time listening, you will find yourself absorbed with J.P. Edwards’ alluring and original guitar playing, which switches from picking to plucking, and strumming, making sure your attention and interest is held throughout each song. By the time you’ve breezed through tracks like: “World Tour”, “Stargazing”, “Move On”, “Ties”, “Drop Everything” and “Grave”, you’ll be well and truly hooked by the sheer beauty of it all.

This young man is going to be around for some time, his music is full of art, soul and compassion. J.P. Edwards conveys much emotion in his tone and each inflection carries with it meaning and penetrates the listener. None more so than on my favorite song on the album – “Move On” – where the extension of his vocals into falsetto adds a feeling of bittersweet yearning which is totally irresistible to the human ear.

No matter what kind of music you like, you will probably enjoy “Hearticulate”, because honesty in music almost always outshines taste in genres, and J.P. Edwards’ music delivers, both honesty and integrity, by the bucket load. Awesome, thoughtful content and delicately powerful deliveries, does the rest to captivate audiences!
