My Fellow Americans

My Fellow Americans is a quartet that covers pop, rock, and country tunes from past to present. The band uses three part harmony, three guitars, one bass, and one kick drum to deliver a unique sound that is adaptable to any occasion, large or small. Since My Fellow Americans does not have a drummer, the band can play as quiet or as loud as is required but with the use of the single kick drum they can also keep the dance floor moving.
