| American Authors plan to write their own script |
December once again offered up a mountain of snow to keep all the skiers and snowboarders busy. There was also a stocking-load of fresh mp3s that made for the perfect companion alongside a fire and some eggnog.
Brooklyn indie-rockers American Authors are ending the year with a bang. Although their self-titled EP was released back in the summer, the band is riding the waves of their songs into the winter. The folk-pop sound comes out on the track "Best Day Of My Life" and features some good banjo work by James Adam Shellby. Only one show in Huntington, NY, is scheduled for the tour so far.
It's a melancholy feeling as one chapter ends and one chapter begins. This year has brought some exciting, unique, new music, and it appears the future will be just as bright in 2014.
