Biography
Eddie Marcon (ゑでぃまぁこん) is a psychedelic folk group from Himeji, Hyogo, Japan, founded by Eddie Corman and Jules Marcon.
Both Eddie and Marcon first played together in an early incarnation of LSD March, psych-blasted legends of the Japanese underground. Combining their names to form a new endeavour into Japanese acid folk, Eddie and Marcon as Eddie Marcon have been working in much quieter tones to make delicate, gorgeous and esoteric music. Their album "Shining on Graveposts" cradles the mysterious, melancholic air so unique to much Japanese music in intimate spaces.
The graceful arc of Eddie's guitar melodies entwined with the shuffle and swirl of Marcon's percussion are the humble beginnings of rich atmospheres. Falling between half-tuned dreams and stark, crystalline beauty, these songs are rich with warmth, shot into spacey terrain with tender eccentricity and otherworldly charm. Eddies voice is a hushed, tingling thing, rising on occasion from its gentle soul to a more sweeping majesty.
