Formed 2007 in San Francisco as Goodbye Nautilus, American Studies came about as a natural progression in 2009 of five friends who were never content to settle. Live shows were highly charged and led to regular gigs around the West Coast and a wealth of self-released material. Child's Horn displays a versatile loud band running on solid ground. Recorded at Tiny Telephone in San Francisco, Child's Horn is the most recent of two new LP's recorded by the San Francisco band playing off of feelings of confusion, loss, anger, and acceptance with a dash of positive optimism. credits released 19 December 2012 Written by Eric Shawn Arranged and Performed by American Studies Recorded and Mixed at Tiny Telephone by Ian Pellicci Mastered by Ben Euphrat American Studies is: Eric Shawn - Vocals, Guitar Jeremy Gekov - Lead Guitar, Backup Vocals Dayne Wood - Drums Nick Volkart - Bass Ben Euphrat - Keys & Backup Vocals
