Mission Hill’s Bio:

Mission Hill is an alternative rock band from Boston MA that mixes provoking songwriting, catchy hooks, moody vocals, an energetic live show, and strong musicianship with an unerring commitment to their unique sound.

Since forming in late 2007 they have gained a large following through relentless gigging and indie distribution. Their single “Crazy” is receiving airplay all over the country and is steadily rising up the radio charts. The band has received much critical acclaim including recently being awarded an LA Music Award for “Indie Male Vocalist of the Year”, being named the “Top Local Band To Watch in 2010″ by Boston Music Spotlight, as well as being named to the number one spot on Alternative Addiction’s list of “Top Ten Unsigned Bands in the Country”.

After bursting onto the scene with their debut EP, “Mission Hill EP”, the band has grown into one of the premiere bands on the New England music scene. The bands recent success is apparent with their exciting 2010 that included being selected to open for Bon Jovi and Kid Rock at Gillette Stadium, performing at the Kiss 108 Kiss Concert at the Comcast Center, completing a one month residency at the new Hard Rock Cafe in Saigon Vietnam, playing live on FOX Morning News and releasing the critically acclaimed “Beautiful Addiction EP”. The band has shared the stage with many national acts including Bon Jovi, Kid Rock, Boys Like Girls, The Script, Candlebox, Tim Reynolds, Ke$ha, Marcy Playground, WAR, Donavan Frankenreiter, Parachute, Blessid Union of Souls, The Gracious Few, and many more. With their new songs and an inspiring live performance, Mission Hill is coming for your audio souls!!

For singer/songwriter/guitarist AJ Edwards, music has always offered a certain ‘pull…’

“I think I’ve had this subconscious desire to play music for awhile,” comments AJ, “but it all really began to surface when I first saw U2 perform in Boston in 2001. I began teaching myself guitar a couple days after.”

The Boston born/based artist soon began to realize his passion for songwriting and spent many late nights building a balanced set of original songs and covers.

“For awhile I really just wanted to get out there and play, but at the same time I felt that I needed something original to work into my act first,” says AJ.

Eventually, Edwards grabbed his acoustic guitar and booked a few dates at local bars and college campuses, which resulted from his earliest steps on stage at numerous open-mike nights. Since then, he has collaborated with some highly respected artists in the local music scene including legendary studio drummer, John Dorizzi, and engineers, Dave Lefkowitz (Johnny A) and Jay Frigoletto (Alice In Chains, Oasis, Ani DiFranco) on his self-produced, debut full-band album, “Start Over the Moon.” The record was released October 2009 and received subsequent airplay on numerous commercial and college radio stations in the northeast.

Edwards is currently in the studio working on a six-song EP, which he anticipates will be finished this summer.

“There is definitely something for everyone on this record – and while I’m often most comfortable channeling my musical influences, I want more people to know what an AJ Edwards album sounds and feels like.”  Edwards adds, “A proper introduction is the goal of this release.”
