THE MILWAUKEES: AN AMERICAN BAND
-----------------------------------------------
The songs on American
Anthems Vol. 1, the new full-length
release from THE MILWAUKEES, are snapshots of American life, experienced
by a band that has criss-crossed the U.S. enough times to kill four
vans and has gained a complete perspective by touring all over the
world. THE MILWAUKEES have been propositioned to “make out”
with Mormons in Utah, honored with an Illinois college after-party
marked by a fan streaking naked past a police officer, and have been
“banned for life” from Canada.“We were born and
raised in the country that gave birth to rock and roll and we are
celebrating that tradition and chasing the dream,” says frontman
and resident ringleader Dylan St. Clark (Guitar/Vox). “The album
is both proud and critical. Our goal was not get on a soapbox and
preach. We’ll paint the pictures and tell the stories and let
the listeners decide.”
Produced with the band by Wayne Dorell,
American Anthems Vol. 1
displays the maturity of a band comfortably immersed in a thrilling
new level of confidence. THE MILWAUKEES no longer are encumbered
by the trendy tendencies of youthful inexperience. In that respect,
the new CD may be a stylistic departure, but it’s the logical
step in the band’s ongoing quest to make urgent music that’s
melodically memorable.
American Anthems Vol. 1 is
currently available through iTune, Amazon, and CD Baby.
