(SW) Rising LA-based Americana-rock band American Mile returns with their most emotionally resonant single yet, "Waiting on a Sunday. " This stirring ballad about a single mother's fight to keep her family afloat is from the forthcoming sophomore album American Dream, which is due on June 6th.
Blending heartfelt lyrics with soaring melodies and rich instrumentation, the song captures the quiet desperation of a woman doing everything she can to feed her children and hold on to hope. "Waiting on a Sunday" is a stellar showcase of American Mile's gift for storytelling-raw, honest, and deeply human.
The band intended to write something that felt real-something that could be someone's truth. This song is about when you feel like you've tried everything, and all that's left is to believe in something better, even if it never comes. Will that Sunday ever come? We may never know. But for the woman at the heart of the story, hope lies just beyond the horizon.
American Mile comprises four seasoned Los Angeles-based studio and touring musicians who, like many Los Angeles-based creatives, flocked to the city of angels from small towns to pursue their dreams. With roots deep in classic rock and country, their music is simultaneously nostalgic and unmistakably current, resonating with fans across generations. The band fuses Americana, rock, and soul with cinematic songwriting and powerhouse vocals, hitting those sweet spots that blend heavy-hitting riffs with soulful lyrics that have earned them comparisons to The Black Crowes, The Brothers Osborne, and Nathaniel Rateliff & the Night Sweats, among others.
American Dream follows their 2020 debut, The Longest Road, crafted with Grammy-nominated producers Bruce Witkin and Keith Nelson. Known for their explosive stage presence, cultivated from playing over 200 shows per year, American Mile has earned acclaim across North America, performing on stages like Summerfest, the NASCAR Auto Club 400, and the Idaho Potato Drop. They've captivated audiences at legendary venues such as Moonshine Flats, Goldfields, and The Viper Room and have shared the stage with icons like 38 Special, Blue Oyster Cult, Nate Smith, Kameron Marlowe, and Neon Trees. Each performance cements them as a must-see act, further establishing their name in the lineage of modern country rock. American Mile will be introducing these new songs to audiences this Spring on tour, including an album release show at the Gibson Showroom in Los Angeles on June 12th.
