AMERICAN DRAG (https://myspace.com/americandrag)
rock / classic / progressive
A gang of unapologetic rockers, American Drag is a kicking live band from the San Francisco Bay Area with songs to match. The band drops classic rock attitude on a modern sound, electrifying audiences with tried and true song craft and fearless performances since forming the group in 2004.
The band's self-titled debut (2005) tracks the human spirit’s struggle in Americana— the “American Dream” turned “American Drag.” In a modern-classic landscape of hard-edged roots rock and electronic textures, front man Will Evankovich casts his bittersweet narrations with a timber reminiscent of Chris Robinson (Black Crowes). Lead guitarist Jason Thwaites walks on the fragile edge of lyricism and anti-technical dissonance while bassist Joseph Shaughnessy locks in the bottom end foundation to compliment the melody of the music to which Monroe Grisman’s subtle harmony vocals are set against his crunchy rhythm guitar.
