Artist description An explosive New York City six-piece juggernaut determined to color a barren musical landscape with flourishes of Soul, old-skool R&B and Rock. Emphasis on complex arrangements and clear, honest vocal styles set dr. ghost apart from assembly-line rock by creating their own style: a new hybrid of tight, Memphis-style horns, retro keys and a fusionistic rhythm section, punctuated by songwriter/guitarist Dom Dorman's chang-a-lang-a rhythm chops and lyrical wailing.

Music Style Rock & Retro R&B

Musical Influences James Brown, Cream, Otis Redding...
