The Americans Recruit Sean Lennon and Daniel Merriweather For New Album
. R&B infused indie rock outfit The Americans will release their six-track, sophomore EP on November 16th. The album was produced by lead singer / guitarist Charlie Klarsfeld and Sean Lennon, who also lends vocals to the forlorn yet optimistically sweet "Requiem" (which he produced). Each of the EP's six tracks organically build upon The Americans' debut EP, trading well-mapped lyrics for a more vulnerable set and collaborating with musicians like Daniel Merriweather and Mr. Jpatt (of NYC production team, The Knocks) to round out their already robust lineup. The Americans will play dates in select cities, including Boston, Los Angeles and, of course, New York in support of the EP release this fall (more info to follow). Additionally, the band's first music video, for "Requiem," will be available online come late September. Starring Klarsfeld, Lennon and the rest of The Americans, "Requiem" was directed by Jordan Galland and strings together vignettes depicting the suicidal tendencies of the video's heroine in a vivid, Hal Ashby-inspired landscape.
