American Music Club

American Music Club (often abbreviated AMC) is a San Francisco-based band led by singer-songwriter Mark Eitzel. They've been recording and playing in SF clubs since the mid 1980's, showing a remarkable longevity for a band that has been far more critically acclaimed than financially successful. Although born in California, frontman Mark Eitzel spent his formative years in Great Britain and Ohio before returning to the Bay Area in 1980.

The Kindling

The Kindling started as a collaboration between songwriter and guitarist Guy Weir and drummer Leon Baker. In the autumn of 2010, influenced by the guerilla recording spirit of the likes of sparklehorse, tom waits, and mount eerie, they explored the recording possibilities of Guy’s place in the remote Kent countryside. They took Guy's late night songs, added distant harmonies from adjacent rooms, banjo, lap steel, mellotron, fireside percussion, and straightaway the results felt like old friends.
