The sound of an 80s prom in a war zone…located in the dead heart of country music, Nashville, TN.
That is the sound and spirit of Palm Ghosts, as far from the honky-tonks and pedal taverns of their adopted city as one can get. More at home in rainy Manchester or blustery Berlin, the trio weaves early cinematic dream pop and new wave with brooding post punk.
Spin Magazine says Palm Ghosts is "A Heat Seeking Missle for Early Alternative Rock Fans"
Manchester’s Analogue Trash describes Palm Ghosts as “Achingly beautiful, fragile and majestic music. An intoxicating mix of Shoegaze and Dream pop, taking from the 80’s but not in debt to it”
South Africa’s Jangle Pop Hub has said the band has “An inimitable 80’s style dream pop that mixes the avaricious swirl of The Cocteau Twins, the atmospherics of The Cure and the grandiosity of Echo and The Bunnymen”
Palm Ghosts is:
Joseph Lekkas- Lead Vocals, Bass
Benjamin Douglas- Guitar, Vocals
Walt Epting- Drums, Percussion
Astronotever is locals Ben Hinz (Ronald Raygun) and Josh Ingersoll (The Heart Pills), a high-energy drum-machine space-robot rock-and-roll outfit.
