featuring 16 wildly eclectic songs from the score dan nettles (kenosha kid) and jim white wrote for a julliard drama school performance based on the works of sam shepherd. in 'sounds of the americans' stories abound, rising and falling behind a rollercoaster musical backdrop; a mad preacher speaks of interplanetary mission fields, a lovelorn teen confides her deepest fears to her diary, a proud son relays the tale of how he lovingly refurbished his dad's derelict car, a zombie choir chants a consumerist catechism, a redneck entrepreneur recounts how his 'nose got shot off'. it's sort of a post-modern musical spaghetti western, jim admits ruefully. will appeal to fans of giant sand, the handsome family, wilco etc.
