American Field Day

American Field Day is the creative project of Denver singer-songwriter Patrick Armould. At age 16 Armould formed the band Halleway with friends from high school. Buoyed by Armould's songwriting and unmistakable voice, the band found streaming success that would take them to play with nationally touring acts like Houndmouth and Joe Pug. When the band went on hiatus, Armould channeled his energy into American Field Day, which walks the stylistic line between rock n roll and Americana. Fans of Whiskeytown, Jason Isbell and the Avett Brothers will find a lot to like in the melodic, dynamic songs of AFD.


In the summer of 2019 Armould recorded his first EP in Nashville, TN with the guidance of producer Bill Reynolds of Band of Horses. He was backed by a stellar band that included Carl Broemel (My Morning Jacket) on guitars and Robbie Crowell (Deer Tick, Midland) on bass and keys. It was a heady beginning for a songwriter who is just starting the last year of high school, but Armould rose to the occasion and the result is a self titled EP that is marked as much by his melodic songwriting as it his trademark voice.
