Handsome Ghost

The Brilliant Glow

2016-11-28

Another Indie Rock album. These guys kind of sound like Vampire Weekend, or even possibly like The Head and the Heart. This the debut album from Handsome Ghost. Like many artists Handsome Ghost realized when you are on the road there is a lot of stuff going on, and it is hard to have hobbies and do other things when you are constantly on the road playing shows. With that being said, like a lot of albums, this was written in between shows, which you can certainly hear some of the challenges in the lyrics that they are still getting their feet wet. Not bad though, can't wait to hear what the next album sounds like. Check out tracks 1 and 3 on this shorter album.
