Its first show as a full band was played July 18, 2007 at the Troubadour in West Hollywood, California.
After breaking up with his girlfriend, moving out of his house, and joining a 12-step program for addiction, Ebert began work on a story about a messianic figure named Edward Sharpe. According to Ebert, Sharpe "was sent down to Earth to kinda heal and save mankind ... but he kept getting distracted by girls and falling in love." Ebert later met singer Jade Castrinos in Los Angeles, California, United States. In the summer of 2009, as Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros, Ebert and Castrinos toured the country with a group of fellow musicians in a big white school bus.
Its song "Home" was voted number 15 on the Australian Triple J Hottest 100's 2009 countdown, the largest music poll in the world.

Better Days
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros Lyrics
I've seen better days, dripping down your face
We don't have to talk, let's dance
For all the times you felt alone, dreaming better
I see better, better days
Too dumb to say goodbye that's some cliché shit, make me wanna cry
Just know that every time I look in your eye
I see better, I see better, better days
Try to remember, that you can't forget
Down with history, up with your head
For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace
We might still know sorrow but we got better days
I seen better ways, some won't believe
But I don't need much more than faith
For all the times you felt alone
Dreaming better, dreaming better, better ways
Too dumb to say goodbye
Now that's some give up shit
Make me wanna cry
Just know that every time I look in your eye
I see better, I see better, better days
Try to remember, that you can forget
Down with history, up with your head
For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace
We might still know sorrow but we got better days
Better days
Guess who's back in town

I’ve seen better days, dripping down your face
We don’t have to talk, let’s dance
For all the times you felt alone, dreaming better
I see better, better days
Too dumb to say goodbye that's some cliché shit, make me wanna cry
Just know that every time I look in your eye
I see better, I see better, better days
Try to remember, that you can’t forget
Down with history, up with your head
For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace
We might still know sorrow but we got better days
I seen better ways, some won’t believe
But I don’t need much more than faith
For all the times you felt alone
Dreaming better, dreaming better, better ways
Too dumb to say goodbye
Now that’s some give up shit
Make me wanna cry
Just know that every time I look in your eye
I see better, I see better, better days
Try to remember, that you can forget
Down with history, up with your head
For sweet tomorrow, she never fell from grace
We might still know sorrow but we got better days
Better days
Guess who's back in town

Such a brilliant song, possibly my favourite song of all time
Abby Saez
I love how this song sounds like the oldie music you'd hear in the 70's only to find out its pretty recent
