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.

That's What's Up
Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros Lyrics
I'll be the church, you be the steeple
You be the king, I'll be the people
Well I was feeling such a mess I thought you'd leave me behind
Well I was being such a wreck I thought you'd treat me unkind
But you helped me change my mind
I'll be the sun, you be the shining
You be the clock, I'll be the timing
Well I was feeling such a mess I thought you'd leave me behind
Well I was feeling so upset I thought the sun never shined
Then I found forever
Hey hey love
We've been best friends forever darling
That's what's up
Forever
No matter what
You've got my love to lean on darling
That's what's up
You've got my love to lean on darling
No matter what
You be the book, I'll be the binding
You be the words, I'll be the rhyming
While I was feeling such a wreck I thought I was losing my mind
While I was feeling such a mess I thought the sun never shined
You be the bird, I'll be the feather
We'll be the best of friends forever
While I was feeling such a mess I thought you'd leave me behind
While I was feeling such a wreck I thought you'd treat me unkind
Then I'll find forever and always
You've got my love to lean on darling
All the days
Forever, come what may
You've got my love to lean on darling
All the days
You've got my love to lean on darling
All the days of our days, yeah
Love is our shelter
Love is our cause
Love goes on forever
Yeah love will lead us all
Love, it is our honor
Love, it is our all
Love goes on forever
Yeah love it is our home
Oh, yeah, that's what's up

Jade has such a full real voice. You get this impression she's full to bursting of something and sometimes it peeks out into her voice. It carries the whole song.
