A marriage of Jimi Hendrix's soulful style with Bill Frisell's atmospheres. Add a roots, reggae and hip-hop budunkadunk, and coffeehouse drumming and you've found the iceberg's tip.
Now plumb the depths to discover what truly lies underneath.
American Motel's music is both refreshing and evoking. With jazz roots, a dash of hip-hop, a sprinkling of blues and an all-purpose flavor, this Piedmont, NC-based collective is a newly reincarnated vision of old and new. The band was formed in 2006 and disbanded early, after only two recordings.
Veteran guitarist Seth Peagler reformed the group in 2009 with New York drummer Doc MacNab and roots and reggae bassist Sally Newland. Currently a search is on for a local hand percussionist to round out the sound and fill in the middles.
The current recordings on this page feature the former lineup; the only current member on those recordings is Seth Peagler: Doc and Sally are not. But we wanted to get something up that will give the listener SOME idea of the direction the band has come from and near to where we are going. That being said, the *new sound* isn't that different from the old, but there are minor changes as musicians each have their own individual styles. There are immediate plans to record new material and possibly re-record some of the familiar old songs. Stay tuned and offer feedback when you like.
Please help spread the word about this new music and look for us in your town soon.

Hey there, Here's one from left field... Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat? A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video: Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4 Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice. Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today. I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible. Help to raise awareness. Say have you checked out my web site (http://www.faberoptime.com) recently? Take care and keep in touch. Best, Faber. "Just a guy trying to make the world a better place."
