| American
Minor Debut |
press release reports: American Minor's debut
album comes as a complete surprise, sounding like a missive from an alternate,
more perfect universe where Television opened for Bad Company and the Gun
Club toured with Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers. Produced by Christopher
Thorn & Brad Smith (founding members of Blind Melon) and mixed by Rob
Schnapf (Elliott Smith, Beck, Foo Fighters, The Vines), American Minor's
eleven songs display a natural confidence and ease that spring from a lifetime
of shared experiences growing up in Huntingon, West Virginia. At a time
when too much technology and too many stylists have paralyzed rock &
roll with a synthetic sheen, American Minor breaks through the plastic
with eleven timeless songs that capture an American sound that's equal
parts Skynyrd and the Pixies.
American Minor's upcoming self titled debut
CD will be in stores August 16th but you can hear a sample now by clicking
the full story link.
