American Weekend

About Me


The name of the band is Stella-US. We decided to call this site American Weekend mostly because we are shamelessly promoting our record entitled "American Weekend". It's now available for download from various locations (see button to the left of this paragraph). If you have any interest in knowing where we came from or why we are doing this at all, you can click here . If you love us and would like to help us push our goods, you can click here . If you hate us, you can click here . If you are more interested in nonverbal courtship patterns in women, you can click here .
I suppose it should be stated that we had some help in the process of recording this stuff. Here are several gratuitous name droppings:
Tom Petersson of the famed rock band Cheap Trick played the bass guitar on a few of our songs.
Danielle Howle lent her vocal cords to the song "NYC".
And the boys from Thunderchild Manor all helped out in one way or another.
All of the grave details of who did what, if you have some morbid fascination with grave details, can be found here .
Otherwise, please listen, give us a shout, and be our friend.

We love goldenfiddle.com, especially since they are linking to Stella :: New Age Special in their "call of the wild" section at the top of the page.
