Originally from the sleepy canal-town of Metamora, Indiana…

Caleb Christopher Edwards grew up with a mandolin in his hand, the Gospel in his ear, and a song in his heart. Edwards developed his ears by listening to his father play the guitar, to his mother’s singing, and he developed his imagination when he observed the shagbark hickory, the whitetail deer, and Orion in the heavens. Edwards, a fourth generation bluegrass musician, attended the Kentucky School of Bluegrass and Traditional Music in the heart of Appalachia. While there, Edwards began to hone his signature tenor and his mandolin playing but more importantly, he began the long journey of finding his voice. After graduation, Edwards and his new bride made the move to Nashville, TN where he put his bluegrass skills to work as a band member, session musician, and a teacher for the next ten years. This decade of music led Edwards to performing at Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Merlefest, the Station Inn, the Grand Ole Opry, countless cities all over North America, and in five different bands ranging from traditional to progressive bluegrass, Irish music, world music, folk music, and even comedy. In 2020, Edwards found himself with the release of his debut solo album, Metamorphosis; an album that reclaimed the life lived between ages 18 and 24 and foreshadowed a life of wonder. The humble release found its delighted fans, and the world caught its first glimpse of a bluegrass gunslinger evolving into an artist. In 2021, Edwards began writing a monthly essay called My Monthly Musings that documents his journey as an artist pursuing wonder in his faith, travels, and wrestling with his Creator. Now entering his thirties, Caleb Christopher Edwards is a singer-songwriter, mandolinist, folk musician, producer, essayist, and a writer who travels from city to city proclaiming the good news and a holistic way of living in a tired, hopeless, and apathetic world. An audience member is likely to see this thoughtful man donned in corduroy singing an invitation with his gospel tenor, accompanied by the warm tone of a mandolin in an Edenic hymn of hope, rest, and wonder.
