The Love Library is a new record label owned and operated by Allen Salmon, a Nashville based producer. Our first signing is Gileah and The Ghost Train.
Gileah and The Ghost Train write songs about doubt, faith, sin, heartbreak, love, and redemption. Gileah’s biggest influences are literary; Flannery O’Connor, Thomas Hardy, and George MacDonald. These guides give the record a powerful sense of drama. Although Gileah and The Ghost Train have been playing together for a number of years, this record marks their official debut as a band.
The self-titled LP features Gileah Taylor as the voice and songwriter and Ava Quigley as the second voice/rhythm guitarist/hottest omnichordist ever. Joining them are the ghost members of The Ghost Train, guitarist Kevin Woerner, drummer Ben Phillips, and producer Allen Salmon. Allen wrote with the band, arranged the songs, laid down some wicked bass tracks, and created a majestic tone for the record.

"Gileah and The Ghost Train is a well-crafted, intelligent pop album that manages to entertain the ear as well as engage the soul, with just the right combination of poetic lyrics, musical hooks to spare, and warm, human-sounding ensemble playing."- Bert Saraco (The Phantom Tollbooth)
"They combine the best of their predecessors to bring you some of the best folk-indie-pop that you haven't heard." - Plugged
