More From Cool American

Portland based group Cool American has certainly caught the ears of the ATH staff over the last couple of months. Last month Nate dog shared single “Great at Parties” and today I’m excited to share this new single entitled “Maui’s”. I love how the song fools you into thinking it’s going to be this slow and mellow jam, but then slaps you in the face to power into a straight rock n roll tune. Well done gentlemen.

New album Infinite Hiatus is out June 2nd on Good Cheer Records.

Cool American is Cool

Redundant title there, but there’s nothing redundant about the work Cool American bring to the table. There’s a nostalgic feel to their sound, as I definitely hear a Schwarzenbach nod in the way the vocals are deliver (especially Dear You era). Discordant notes ring out, chords shoot through the mix, yet there’s an undying pop sensibility that survives, giving you just enough of a hook to keep coming back. It’s cool to hear this sort of rock coming back into fashion, which is definitely keeping me focused on the band’s forthcoming release, Infinite Hiatus…hits on June 2nd via Good Cheer Records.
