Biography of McCain, Edwin. Detailed McCain, Edwin profile and review.

Edwin McCain is an alternative and Indie rock guitar player. He was born on January 20, 1970 in Charleston, South Carolina. While his albums are released under his name, he does have a permanent band, referred to as the Edwin McCain Band. Members of the band as of 2004 include Larry Chaney, lead guitar; Pete Riley, rhythm guitar and background vocals; Craig Shields, saxophone and keyboards; Lee Hendricks, bass guitar; and Dave Harrison, drums.

After signing a contract with the Atlantic Records label Lava Records in 1994, his first major-label album, Honor Among Thieves, was issued in 1995. His second album, Misguided Roses, spawned I'll Be, a major single in 1998. Two more albums (Messenger and Far From Over) followed, but at the end of 2001, he split from Lava. In 2003 he released a collection of acoustic versions of songs both old and new called The Austin Sessions via ATC Records, a Nashville-based independent record label (at which McCain was the first artist signed following its creation in 2001). Mid-2004 saw the arrival of his first studio album in three years, entitled Scream and Whisper, which was released on another indie label, DRT Entertainment.
