About American Authors
American Authors
reached double Platinum with their #1 chart-topping debut single
"Best Day Of My Life." The song has been bolstered by
prominent placements including Lowe's TV ad, trailers for the film

selection. American Authors is comprised of
Zac Barnett (vocals), James Adam Shelley (guitar/banjo), Dave Rublin (bass), and Matt Sanchez (drums). Together they hail from
the four corners of the country, each bringing their own influences
and experiences to the writing table to create pop-flavored alt
rock sprinkled with four-part harmonies, spirited lyrics, and
contagious optimism. To hear their music and to watch them perform,
it can be said that American Authors has the natural 'it' factor
that leads to music's most successful artists.
