Edison Glass was an American indie rock band from Coram, Long Island, New York, consisting of Joshua Silverberg (singer/guitarist), Josh "Mountain" Morin (singer/bassist), Joe Morin (drummer), and James Usher (guitarist). The band was called Mannafest when it formed in 1998; it was eventually changed to Edison, and later to Edison Glass when they were signed by Credential Recordings in 2004. Their current band name is derived from the names of inventor Thomas Edison and composer Philip Glass.{{cite web|url=http://www.tulsaworld.com/lifestyle/article.aspx?articleID=20080609_44_D3_spancl420798 |title=Tulsa Entertainment, Tulsa Restaurants, Oklahoma Dining, Music OK, the Arts and Movies |publisher=Tulsa World |access-date=2011-11-17}}{{dead link|date=December 2020}}{{cite web|url=http://www.christianitytoday.com/music/interviews/2006/edisonglass-0606.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121012064458/http://www.thefish.com/music/interviews/11618020/Usher%3a-%27Christians-Need-to-Be-Creative%27/|archive-date=October 12, 2012|title=Usher: 'Christians Need to Be Creative', Christian Music Interviews, Features |publisher=Christianitytoday.com |access-date=2011-11-17}}{{Cite web|date=2007-10-09|title=Edison Glass - Interviews|author=Anta, Julio D.|url=https://www.indievisionmusic.com/interviews/edison-glass/|access-date=2020-12-31|website=Indie Vision Music|language=en-US}}{{Cite web|title=Edison Glass: Long Island music graduates become thinking man's rockers - Edison Glass|author="Cummings, Tony|url=https://www.crossrhythms.co.uk/articles/music/Edison_Glass_Long_Island_music_graduates_become_thinking_mans_rockers_/30998/p1/|access-date=2020-12-31|website=www.crossrhythms.co.uk}}
