American Princes

ARTIST MAINARTIST INFORELATED ARTISTSLINKSREVIEWS

American Princes are a edgy but tuneful indie rock foursome whose angular guitar lines and anxiety-inflected vocals blend with hooky melodies and solid rhythms to create a sound that mixes these disparate elements like a cool gin and tonic. American Princes are also a rare example of a band who moved away from the big city in pursuit of success; vocalist and rhythm guitarist David Slade, drummer Matt Quinn, and bassist John Beachford began working together while they were living in New York City, but the pressure and expense of life there made it hard for them t...[more]

 

 

Yep Roc Records is proud to introduce the next household name in indie rock ? American Princes. Little Spaces, their debut full-length delivers a bevy of terse, powerful, loud-as-hell rock n' roll straight from Arkansas to your soon-to-be-shaken musical world. The rotating lead vocals of guitarists Collins Kilgore and David Slade and bassist John Beachboard create a push and pull of remarkably powerful shifts of mood while drummer Matt Quin mans the throttle. The Nashville Scene calls them "Shaggy mo   [ read more ]

American Princes, the Little Rock, Ark. outfit that turned heads with the Pixiefied power-pop album Less and Less has just completed follow-up Other People. The group, now a five piece with the addition of keyboardist/guitarist Will Boyd, recorded at New York City studio The Fireplace with Chuck Brody, who's worked on records by the Wu-Tang Clan and Peter Bjorn and John. 'A few friends have said it's our '80s record, but it's probably more Tears for Fears or Tom Petty than New Order,' says sin   [ read more ]

Less and Less, American Princes' sophomore release, documents a marked period of artistic growth for a band still pushing the limits. While still high on earnest, full-tilt indie rock, producer Alan Weatherhead (Sparklehorse, The Comas) has dispensed with their earlier, raw sound in favor of more-nuanced, pop-influenced territory. A 2005 tour with Lucero helped raise awareness of the Little Rock, AR band leading Popmatters to comment, "It's refreshing to hear an indie rock band that is more 'indie RO   [ read more ]

American Princes' ranks swelled in 2006 with the addition of guitarist/vocalist Will Boyd, and the bandmates introduce their new three-guitar attack on Other People -- not in the loud, raucous style with which the Drive-By Truckers embrace their trio of guitarists, but in a cool and controlled manner courtesy of producer Chuck Brody. Having twiddled knobs for Jennifer Lopez and Wu-Tang Clan, Brody is perhaps best known for adding rhythmic crunch and booming bass to R&B records. Bu   [ read more ]
