American Music Club May 16, 2008

Formed in San Francisco back in 1982, the American Music Club features vocalist/guitarist Mark Eitzel and Vudi with new members Sean Hoffman and Steve Didelot. Although commonly lumped with other bands from the "slowcore" and "sadcore" movements, AMC is better known for mastering the disparate strands of American music into a wholly unique synthesis all their own. Now based in Los Angeles the band's new release is 'The Golden Age.' Gano is a member of the Violent Femmes.
