Album Notes

A musical amalgamation of ideas, inspirations and talents. Their music is eclectic and original; rich vocal harmonies rounded out by well-thought arrangements, and top notch instrumentation. Careful and well executed, yet open and boundless at times. Each musician brings their unique background and ideas into the fold.

"This eponymous debut scales new heights with a mixed bag of rock and pop styles that are at once unique but immediately recognizable. Americana, country, prog-rock, reggae, soul and numerous other genres blend a stew that features exquisite harmonies and excellent songwriting as core ingredients." --Eric Harabadian, Metro Times

"Building from the soul/funk base that Detroit is known for, National Ghost branches out into a modern rock sound that is fueled by a love of the 1970’s and a desire for the now...Get in line, this one is worth waiting for."
--Wildy's World

"Very well produced..a self-produced cd usually doesnt come off this thoughtful and creative...lots of neat lil things happening.
NG utilizes the backvox as a whole separate instrument...appearing in places one might put a guitar fill.
All in all, the performances, arrangements, song topics, mixes etc showcase great talent as a band unit as well as at the player level. Nice diversity in the mixes and song styles." -John Kachnowski, LSO
