Artist description
Ghostgirl plays outside the box, and pours her life blood out with each note. She first signed with ABC Probe back in the 60's, and was shunned by music executives left and right. U see, women didn't play what, or the way, Ghostgirl does. A transient writer 4 the village voice once said that what she does 2 a guitar should be illegal. Once u see her plant her headstock firmly in2 the floor, u'll agree, but u'll also be hooked. |

Artist History
Gg originally signed with ABC Probe records in the mid sixties, and toured extensively with Heart of Darkness and Saint Steven. She's played with a multitude people, but she's never been a name-dropper. Frustrated with the business, she left in 1974, when her daughter was two, and was sucked in2 a family life of religious strictness. A nasty divorce ended a twenty-five year marriage, and the trama turned her back 2 her music. She now sucks the nickel off of her guitar strings, with a passionate vengence! |
