As their popularity grew, The Edge Band began performing in Pokhara, captivating audiences with their energetic live shows. However, despite their early success, the band underwent significant changes, with the departure of its original members. Determined to keep the band alive, Jeewan Gurung reassembled a new lineup, bringing in Rockey Tulachan, Som Gurung, Sanjeev Shrestha, and Basanta Sharma.
In 2006, the band released their second album, Vibes with Bajra, which became a defining moment in their career.
