it's a barn owl. we have 'em locally. each night they're out if it's dry. i love being awake hearing them at night, knowing they're there. they don't have the nice owl hoot, but a screech. they're beautiful in flight, ghost-like. i love them. the one in the pic is a rescued owl. think it's parents abandoned it as a juvenile.
Thanks for posting up new track Vishnu in the Sow. Loving it. Like all your songs, I get something new from it with each listen. Fantastic. Bags packed -
ready to hit the road and play? Best wishes as always, speak soon, x P
...I had been hearing about this chick all week, and since Massei ended his set calling Ghost's new album "The best thing I've ever heard," I was edge-of-my-seat type of waiting before her set. Golden Ghost's tunes all felt like conversations, the kind of conversations you drive home picking apart and distilling down for some kind of meaning. The sound had a soul within a soul to it -- layers of heart with a mirror. Everything on stage during her set offered a peaceful, uncontrived experience. A few in the audience pegged her sound as Rilo Kiley with a bit of Joanna Newsom. From her vocal and lyrical presence all the way down to her casual exterior, Golden Ghost seemed authentic.
Massei joined her for the set, his guitar swung around him as he sat behind the drums, backing up the singer with layered harmony and percussion. The chemistry between these two beamed across the stage -- there was a clear and natural symmetry there. After the set, Laura Goetz (Ghost) took a minute to describe the evolution of her sound, from the first album up until the new release that is due to come in a few weeks, saying that the sound is "richer and more clear. It definitely gets my ideas across better."
Goetz has spent some time overseas, and is now taking off on a nationwide tour in the States for awhile.
These are among Golden Ghost's favourite places to visit, and we'd be devastated to miss you on this extraordinary tour in support of the brand new album release of "The Unimaginative Body"!
Wow, can you believe it?! It's been over 6 months since the last Golden Ghost show on our shores!
I'm proud and eager to announce, there is a pre-tour Golden Ghost concert in Rochester, NY this coming Thursday, October 8, 2009 at Boulder Coffee Co.!
This will be the first opportunity for anyone in USA to get her new album "The Unimaginative Body" which won't be released for 3 more weeks!
If you are as eager to bring Golden Ghost to your town as others have been, please place your offer soon while there is availability. We're booking Golden Ghost shows for colleges, bookstores, rock clubs, house shows, restaurants, just about anywhere you can think of.
I've got to warn you, "The Unimaginative Body" is THE BEST ALBUM I have heard, and there's little more captivating than the Golden Ghost's live performances!
Really eager to see those of you who can make it to Rochester, New York on Thursday, and to all else who can host and visit Golden Ghost along the way!
i suppose i wouldn't really believe in any other sort of secret thing. this said, please know pried up the bark is wonderful. i deeply envy the way you sing.
