Electric Blue Yonder | Telluride, CO

Electric Blue Yonder (EBY) is a band of Space Folk Explorers born in Montgomery, Alabama and based in Key West, Florida. Their mission is to study the human condition and report back through harmony and song. Blending early bluegrass, parlor traditions, psychedelic folk, cosmic country, and art rock, their sound is rooted in the past but driven by exploration—familiar, yet unplaceable. Known for immersive live shows and genre-defying songwriting, the band released MicroPARTY in 2025, a children’s album and multimedia project that earned Best Children’s Music from the National Parenting Product Awards (NAPPA), reflecting their ethos of curiosity, connection, and creative reach across generations. A traveling troupe of intrepid space folk explorers, Electric Blue Yonder (EBY) examines the mysteries of the universe and reports their findings through song. Described as “Real American Space Folk,” the band draws its inspiration from the psychedelic folk, surf, and cosmic country-rock of the 60s and the Space Age prog/art rock explorations of David Bowie and Pink Floyd, all while shifting time to the early roots and parlor-style guitar of the 20th century. The result is a genre-bending mix that captures a nostalgic familiarity while simultaneously transporting you into uncharted territory. “…a meditative mashup of trippy folk-rock psychedelia, cut with a raw, Alabama flavor befitting their roots. Captivating harmony vocals and skilled, almost Nick Drake-like guitar fills complete the picture.” - Steve Morse, longtime Boston Globe staff music writer who now teaches Rock History at Berklee College of Music
