Ghost Town Blues Band
Ghost Town Blues Band
"Shine," the new album by Ghost Town Blues Band (GTBB), made an explosive entry at #1 on the Billboard Blues Chart. Embodying a Memphis spirit and breaking the STAX tradition with their contemporary blues vision, GTBB's rise represents an invigorating shift in the blues scene, as praised by Living Blues Magazine.
This Beale Street success story has been making waves, headlining at prestigious events like The Montreal Jazz Festival and The Lucerne Blues Festival in Switzerland. With 5-time Blues Blast Music Award nominations and recognition as International Blues Challenge Runner-up, Ghost Town Blues Band is a force to be reckoned with. Their performances, not your typical old-fashioned blues band, have captivated audiences across the United States, Canada, and Europe.
From their dynamic "second-line horn entrance" to their unique use of cigar box guitars and electric push brooms, GTBB brings a refreshing twist to the blues scene. Their live shows boast Allman Brothers-style jams and even feature a hip-hop trombone player. The band's unmatched stage presence and energy have earned them the title of the best new live blues show in the world.
