About Me |
|
’I feel more fellowship with the defeated than with Saints. Heroism and Sanctity don’t interest me, what interests me is being a man’ Camus. After several years of falling out of the back of transits, Simon Aldred dodged the good sense of his peers telling him to ’get a proper job’, took refuge in his bedroom and started work on demos that would form the beginnings of Cherry Ghost. Getting his mates in on the act, keen to dodge the singer-songwriter tag and even more keen to create a bit of a racket, Cherry Ghost completed a handful of gigs around their hometown of Manchester, scored a deal with Heavenly and entered the studio last Summer for four months of recording. The album, released on 9th July, entered the U.K charts at number 7. The band are currently touring sold out venues around the U.K after playing Glastonbury, Oxegen, Latitude with more festivals to follow. The band are part way through writing the 2nd album which promises to remedy ongoing suspicions that ’Cherry Ghost’ is in fact a one man troubadour. It will be a brutal assault on the senses and a poke in the eye for the alpha male. Sx [ ADD ][ MSG ] |
