We’ve been out on tour with our good friends CAVO all of September and have two more shows with them this week before we head home for a little break and then we start tour again with the Gracious Few the second week of October!
“We are wild and young…” The opening line from the first single of Nashville rockers American Bang hits hard at the spirit of the band. From touring with ZZ Top and The Pretenders to releasing their debut self-titled album (out now), American Bang effortlessly pounds out loud, soulful songs one after the other as if they were shots at a bar.
Few bands have capitalized on social networking as diligently as Nashville's American Bang. From their "Get us to 2000 followers" Twitter campaign to contests and fan participation promotions on Facebook, vocalist/songwriter/guitarist Jaren Johnston, lead guitarist Ben Brown, bassist Kelby Ray, and drummer Neil Mason have worked tirelessly to promote the band and generate interest.
