American Authors Are Taking ‘Best Day of My Life’ to a Whole New Generation With Kids Project Bogoo’s Best Day
The singers are trading traditional pop music for a family-friendly Oct. 23 album, with "Zombie Walk" arriving today in time for Halloween.
American Authors, the band behind the 2014 hit "Best Day of My Life," is branching out to a younger audience with the launch of Bogoo’s Best Day. The upcoming album, set to release on October 23, features a spirited character named Bogoo and his adventures with friends. The project aims to capture the essence of friendship, confidence, and individuality, as experienced by kids.
The debut album, titled "The Greatest Adventure Yet," includes three previously released songs: "Celebrate," "Sing With Friends," and "Luckiest Kid Alive." A Halloween-themed track, "Zombie Walk," is scheduled to drop on October 1. The band members, Zac Barnett and Matt Sanchez, drew inspiration from their own family backgrounds for the project, with Barnett's father being a puppeteer and Sanchez's grandfather influencing the creation of Papa Piña.
This marks a new direction for American Authors, who have previously focused on creating pop-rock music that resonates with adults.
