THE GHOST REMAINS Singer/songwriter Jeff Perez (formerly of Huntingfield) returns for his second release as The Ghost Remains. The troubadour of love explores his deepest, sometimes darkest, and most complex emotions on the nature of God, failed relationships, and new beginnings on this eclectic six song EP. Rife with haunting melodies and singalong choruses, Jeff's songs are catchy, thought provoking, and tug at the heartstrings. Backed by the Notown Sound Records rhythm section and a lush orchestration courtesy of the Hawthorne Philharmonic, this baroque pop odyssey recalls sounds reminiscent of everything from the Beach Boys to Elton John to Polyphonic Spree to George Gershwin, all with a distinctively modern twist. “The Ghost Remains' self-titled debut is an expertly crafted set from singer/songwriter Jeffrey Perez, out to prove definitively what a man can do with just a dream and a fistful of songs. "Letter To The Future" introduces us to an an emotive piece of piano-driven hip-pop with a sincerity that harkens back to Harry Nilsson and the best melodic remedies of a bygone age. There is a sadness to "This Lonely Place", and a raw hurt in "What You Deserve" that makes you want to pause the record at times just to give it a hug, but it's all comfortably concealed under a blanket of jaunty ivory tickling. Perez is most luminous when his vocals seem to faintly channel musical spirit animal Billie Holiday, and it’s that same special tonic of fresh yet vintage sound that has allowed bands like Electric Guest to flourish. None of these songs are cheap, stringy appetizers, this is truly pop music that fills the belly, ears, and heart." -Adam Von Doom THE GHOST REMAINS’s tracks God Took A Holiday by THE GHOST REMAINS published on 2020-03-15T01:15:10Z As Long As She Needs You by THE GHOST REMAINS published on 2020-03-15T01:15:07Z You And Me by THE GHOST REMAINS published on 2020-03-15T01:15:05Z
