It's a lush live EP from the Austin, TX-based orchestral folk group.

Gorgeous strings and wistful vocals define Signal Sessions, American Dreamer’s new EP (out February 10). 

"This is our first recording with bass player Dana Wygmans, and we chose songs that showcased her beautiful voice," says bandleader Sasha Klare-Ayvazian to Myspace.

"Unlike our 2016 LP Restless Nights (where we tracked everything individually), in this session we sought out to capture the spirit of the day by tracking live. We wanted a recording that really showcased our live sound, which is really the essence of the band."

The EP's three songs capture the group's breadth: from the layered, harmony-rich "Reach For The Sun" and the upbeat, orchestral rocker "Summer Jam" to "Cue 6," a waltz adapted from a film scored by Klare-Ayvazian.

"I've done a lot of live recording in my classical background, and nothing in my memory compares to the thrill of our Signal Sessions experience," says violinist Audrey Lee.

"I love the honesty of a live performance, and I love the sensation that the mics and cameras around us push us to be our very best. I live for the intensity of focus and connection we experience during each take, and the attention to detail that makes our music and expression what it is."
