In the summer of 2004, brothers Ed and Bob Hyson co-founded the Philadelphia oriented Alternative Rock band FUGITIVE SPECIES which made quite a stir in the Philadelphia music community. The band consisted of members Ed Hyson(lead guitar), Bob Hyson(guitar), Schuyler Ferguson(vocals), Kevin Hines(bass), and Jake Vogel(drums). The band found immediate success within a month of writing their first song and went on to record and independently release their debut album, Plastic Alibis, which was engineered and mixed by Morgan Betz ( G25 PRODUCTIONS ) in 2004. To the band's credit, Fugitive Species recorded their two biggest singles (At Light Speed and This World's Not Simple) in 2005 with songwriter/producer BRIAN BRICKLIN (A&M Records and Hybrid/Sire Records) and received some very positive feedback from James Walsh ( THRESHOLD MUSIC ).
Not only is Ed Hyson a singer/songwriter/performer, but he is the Owner/CEO of indie record label SUPERIOR RECORDS in Philadelphia, PA, a producer for various artists including Ben Freiert, Emilee Burton, and Derek Franc, and drummer for the band 20 Grand in Oneonta, NY.
