—The Word
Critically acclaimed guitar-driven instrumental power jazz rock trio Eddie Arjun (formally known as ARJUN) release their 5th album, Transition (Pheromone Records), following the success of their album Gravity. Transition continues the artistic evolution of one of New York City's most exciting and original bands, featuring the masterful guitar work and deeply expressive compositions of Eddie Arjun Peters. Transition is an outstanding continuation of Eddie Arjun's bold sound and style, rooted in carefully crafted melodies which tell resonant stories without words.

Eddie Arjun has been trailblazing their own hybrid of rock, groove, and improvisational jazz since 2003. Eddie Arjun fuses the raw, electric power of rock and blues with the finesse of improvisational jazz, resulting in a delicate balance of intricately crafted melodies backed by powerhouse musicianship.

Eddie Arjun released a trilogy of albums, Gravity (2016), Core (2014) and Space (2013), featuring special guests Corey Henry (Snarky Puppy, Kenny Garrett, Bruce Springsteen, The Roots), John Medeski (Medeski, Martin & Wood), Jeff Coffin (Dave Matthews Band, Bela Fleck), Scotty Hard (MMW, Sex Mob, Bjork, De La Soul) reaching the top 5 on the Jamband/Relix Radio charts.
