Here’s a great country rocker from American Mile. “Photograph of You” is a song about being separated from a loved one, and still caring for them even after tough times and arguments. Full of insistent rhythm, driving guitar and hearty riffs, “Photograph of You” is a compelling song that pulls you along on rocking, melodic, musical currents. There’s confidence and swagger in the manner of American Mile’s performance, which comes across in the video – footage of the band is interspersed with a narrative about sustaining love despite challenges in the relationship, reinforcing the lyrics.
This single is from the band’s forthcoming second record, “American Dream”, an album that promises to be a collection of heartfelt, heartland country-rock songs, full of stirring energy and dynamic performances. This is the follow-up to the band’s 2020 debut “The Longest Road” which was put together alongside GRAMMY-nominated producers Bruce Witkin and Keith Nelson. American Mile have steadily built up a fan-base through acclaimed, electrifying performances at festivals and at legendary venues, such as The Viper Room. Enjoy.

As ever when the subject of americana comes up the issue of what it is bubbles right up with it. Back in the days when No Depression was an online community, there was a discussion where one participant posed the question “who made us the genre police?” to which another…
From up north but now hiding in rural Suffolk. An insomniac music-lover. Love discovering new music to get lost in - country, singer-songwriters, Americana, rock...whatever. Currently enjoying Nils Lofgren, Ferris & Sylvester, Tommy Prine, Jarrod Dickenson, William Prince, Frank Turner, Our Man in the Field...
Great stuff! Looking forward to the new album.
