About
“After listening, what impresses us most is that New Ghosts have the presence of mind not to allow a wall of sound to dictate or cover up basic song structures. Instead, the vocals and percussion are front and center for an unobstructed balance in sound we can easily recommend.”
“The sound of this Chicago based Trio fits perfectly to grey and dark mornings or evenings – apart from the walls of guitars which are used in the shoegaze-genre, there are also hints of post-rock and epic wave sounds comparable to the Chameleons”
- Coast is Clear
“Evoking British bands like Echo and the Bunnymen, the Church, and Chameleons UK, New Ghosts blends jangly, echoing walls of guitar with haunting vocal melodies. These are orchestral tunes with shadows of shoegaze riding thru the post modern mist. Beautiful music!”

“New Ghosts’ music… …proves to be the perfect soundtrack as Chicago’s winter drags on and on. Songs like “The Deep Freeze” and “Blue Night,” have an icy vibe, the group layering shimmering guitars atop frontman Andrew Moir’s low-key vocals.”
