American Pleasure Dome is an all original Indie Rock band from Minneapolis MN. Their introspective sound draws on bands they love like the Pixies, Guided By Voices, and The Cars. There is plenty of intrigue and storytelling sprinkled throughout the songs, which are all written by lead singer/guitarist Hans Schumacher. Other band members include: Brenda Shepherd-Bass/Vocals, Park Evans-Guitar, Lindsay Paine-Guitar, and Joel Arpin-Drums. APD’s first full length album will be coming out in the next few months, followed by a CD release party sometime in the spring.
