Greg Pope's 7 song EP, "Pete", the follow up to his previous solo project "Popmonster" will hit the streets June 1st, 2009.
"...not only continues the Edmund's Crown sound but expands upon it (and sports pretty cool album art to boot). Popmonster is a true solo debut as well, with Pope writing, singing and playing all the instruments on each track....Freed to do his own thing, Pope lets loose a total of 16 tracks here but there really isn't any filler. ...A real tour-de-force and with Halloween approaching, this Popmonster will be scaring its way up my year-end list."

"As much as I loved Regrets of a Company Man a few years ago, this album is even better. In fact, this is outstanding power pop that blows the doors off most other bands out there. ... it's an amazing “pop monster” of an album....gets a Top Ten of 2008 nod."

Edmund's Crown, is a Nashville based powerpop trio featuring singer/songwriter Greg Pope on guitar, Jon Putnam on bass, and David Sprouse on drums. The band has landed tracks on several TV shows including Dawson's Creek, America's Next Top Model, and NBC's Providence, and on radio stations from Nashville to San Francisco.
"Greg Pope has a knack for writing the kind of infectious hook-laden ear candy that goes down easily and lasts long after the disc has stopped spinning these three-to-four minute gems."
-Gary Glauber, Fufkin.com, PopMatters.com
"Rocking but not overbearing, catchy but not saccharine, and literate but not pretentious, Regrets of a Company Man is a high quality power pop disc that will undoubtedly contend for my year-end top 20"
