   About Holy Ghost Tent Revival
Holy Ghost Tent Revival..
Needing You
Directed by Gene M. Smith


Holy Ghost Tent Revival on Harvey's Kitchen

"Their exploration of styles occurs in a coherent and exciting framework, not a gratuitous display or hodgepodge. Their exciting, polyglot arrangements make perfect musical sense...HGTR isn't genre-bending; they push genre off the cliff." -- Sarah Hall, Salisbury Post

"The (band) play a fantastically entertaining mixture of dirty jazz, roots country/bluegrass, big band and rock that can only be described as explosively intoxicating. The kind of "explosive" that one of those people shot from a cannon perhaps feels." -- Matthew Godbey, The Post & Courier


"Don't think too hard about the genre in which Holy Ghost Tent Revival should be pigeonholed. Rather, get up, dance with your eyes closed and relish in the fact that the Greensboro (band) makes euphonium and banjo sound good together...Holy Ghost recalls a New Orleans jazz band rocking out, reminding us that, for a time, jazz wasn't much more than good and dirty dance music." -- Andrew Ritchey, Independent Weekly



'Getting Over Your Love'
Directed by Gene M. Smith
Co-Directed by Alec Lewis
