From Los Angeles comes Ghost Hounds, which stirs up old school rock 'n' roll with a taste of soul to cook up a new musical brew all their own. The rawness of The Rolling Stones, the indelible hooks of Otis Redding, and the stomp and shake of Ike and Tina Turner instantly come to mind when talking about the party that is Ghost Hounds. Already featured on the video game Rockband 2 are their Jimi Hendrix-esque dance jam “Ashes To Fire” and their swampy-blues love song “Wind Me Up”. Both are destined to be hits. Their debut album is produced and recorded by none other than the legendary team of Nile Rodgers (Chic, David Bowie, Duran Duran, Madonna, etc.) and Bob Clearmountain (The Rolling Stones, Bruce Springsteen, Roxy Music, etc.).
• The Rock Band 2 disc features Ghost Hounds’ “Wind Me Up” joins “Ashes to Fire” as their second track in the Rock Band Music Store.
Harmonix and MTV Games announced the addition of new track to the Rock Band® Music Store catalog of downloadable content featuring music from Ghost Hounds.

Incredible stuff. I've been listening to you guys all day. I got sad when I found that you you only have the 3 tracks available for purchase... the clips from the album sounds great
Hey Ghost Hounds!!. This is Weedo, one of your fans in Argentina saying HI!! and wishing a GREAT WEEK! to the full G.H. crew and everyone enjoying your music.
Hey, thanks for the add... love your guy's work!!! First heard it from... where else, Rock Band 2... love Ashes to Fire!!! in fact I'm actually trying to tab it out myself, any help you could give would be awesome!!! Thanks, and keep up the sweet work!
Here's another fan gained through Rock Band! I love Ashes to Fire, and think Wind Me Up is just as good! You guys have a great bluesy/soul influenced sound that is sorely missed in modern music. But hey, now we have you guys! I actually can't stop singing the chorus of Wind Me Up!
I've signed up to your mailing list (getting the free download in the process), and can't wait for the album! Roll on April!
Congrats on the Rock Band dlc, they're really fun to play. I love the sound of all your tracks on the playlist, and I'll be sure to pick up your debut album when it comes out.
