The 502s - Great Road Trip

Orlando's The 502s often refer to themselves as the happiest band on earth, and they back it up with their unparalleled live shows. The 6 piece indie folk band often leaps outside of the 'folk' constraints with their endless energy and vast musical influences. Matched by songwriting loaded with infectious hooks, The 502s is led by banjoist/singer Ed Isola, who is joined by lifelong friends Matt Tonner, Joe Capati, Sean Froehlich, Nick Melashenko, and Graci Phillips; the sextet's journey has been marked by camaraderie and a shared passion for music. Their hit "Just A Little While" has over 100 million streams, leading to sold-out tours worldwide.
