Edward Rogers is a singer-songwriter, the East Village’s man about town and has a weekly radio show, Atlantic Tunnel, on East Village Radio. He has released two solo albums, working with George Usher; his new CD, “Sparkle Lane,” comes out on February 2, 2010. In fact, Pete, Don and Joe, the other comrades on this gig, all appear on “Sparkle Lane.”

“Sparkle Lane is a street in England where my grandmother lived,” Rogers explains. “The concrete was mixed with pieces of broken glass, so when I was a kid and I’d go to my grandmother’s house in the evening, the street would always look like it was sparkling. That’s how life felt to me as a kid.”
