New York band Ghost Funk Orchestra, led by one-man producer/musician/arranger, blurs the line between soul and psychedelic. Their current live band includes Julian Applebaum on bass, Seth Applebaum on guitar, Kyle Beach on drums, Stephen Chen on baritone sax, Laura Gwynn on vocals and keyboard, Romi Hanoch on vocals and percussion, James Kelly on trombone, Joshua Park on guitar, and Rich Seibert on trumpet.
With a sound that combines elements of soulful grooves with mind-bending psychedelia, Ghost Funk Orchestra has carved out their own unique niche in the music world. Drawing inspiration from a diverse range of artists such as The Natural Yogurt Band and Night Beats among others,
Ghost Funk Orchestra delivers an electrifying live performance that captivates audiences with their infectious energy and undeniable talent. With each member bringing their own individual flair to the stage,

For Fans Of...Temples, Allah-Las, Unknown Mortal Orchestra, Khruangbin, David Axelrod. Where will you hide when the world around you is closing in? On their latest LP, Ghost Funk Orchestra invites you to close your eyes and take a dive into your subconscious. Strings and horns float around from ear to ear while their three sirens explore themes of isolation, fear of the unknown, and the fabrication of self-image. It's a soulful psychedelic journey that picks up sonically where A Song For Paul left off. The drums are heavier, the arrangements are more intricate, and the vocal harmonies soar over a bed of odd time signature grooves. This is an album that's meant to be listened to in the dark. So won't you join them? You're not scared.....are you?
