The 502s are undeniable rays of Florida sunshine spreading joy one rambunctious folk song at a time.
Led by earnest banjo-strumming songwriter Ed Isola, The 502s are a band of brothers whose sound has received critical acclaim as celebratory, wholesome, and utterly life affirming.
For their sophomore full length album, they’ve expanded their sonic range with a veritable Folk orchestra, comprising a colorful menagerie of instruments from strings and xylophones to brass, melodicas, whistles and bells, all wrapped in neighborhood-block-party-sized singalongs with vaulted vocal harmonies worthy of any great concert hall.
I saw you guys play this in Pennsylvania in March. It was my kids’ first concert and we drove from western Kentucky to see it. They loved it. 502s are our favorite band. Well worth the trip.
“How was your night man?” “Well the people next to me had band practice all night with clapping as the main instrument and when I banged on the wall they said ‘hell yeah thanks for the base line’”
Fuuuuckkk!! I'd been reminiscing about about this girl and this song was playing on a loop the day before I met her. It's been quite a while since I last heard this song (few years in fact), and I remembered how positive it made me feel, but I just couldn't remember it. And it was like a sound bug in my head. TL:DR Shazam lead me to this awesome track again!
