For all of the sugary-sweet, 50’s rock-inspired songs that Bobby Edge puts out, he can’t get past his own campy sense of humor. Enter his new single and video “Full Swede Ahead” – part power-pop, part melodious ear-worm, all heart. The video, however, is a silly romp as the band gears up to… hit the arcade bar?
To be fair, I lose all sense of what I was aiming to do when confronted with some vintage cabinet and pinball glory.
This is Edge’s first track since the Jan 2023 LP Algorithm & Blues. Head to the Bobby Edge Linktree where you can find purchase links, streaming, and more.
Plus, Bobby Edge and band will be out on an east coast USA tour starting at the end of the month. Find that tour poster beneath the video.

He’s lived (outside of) Chicago, Madison WI, (ugh) Penn State, Lyon FR, Oxford UK, central New Jersey, and now within earshot of SFO in the Bay Area. When not scouring the web for more great bands and labels to post about, he also spends time drawing (mostly) silly sci-fi and anime stuff under the name Asplenia Studios.
