Ghost Repubic News

Like swollen headed moles we are mixing away, noses twitching and brows furrowing as the dials turn and the sounds send out roots and tendrils into the musical garden. We hope to head to harvest soon. The book version of the Ghost Republic looks to have a publisher for next spring. More on that soon as well.
There is a rumor that Robert may play a song or two from the record in the upcoming shows but that is unconfirmed.

Time to fly! And by flying, time travels.

WGC Solo in Munich! Revised Dates!

We are very happy to announce two (yes, for us it is a very rare and even risky thing to do) shows in Munich! One on Friday the 23rd and one Monday the 26th! You can see the details to the side. Robert will be playing some different songs each night...and maybe some of the same just in case you cannot be at both shows!

On Friday, we'll be playing with The Moonband (http://www.themoonband.de/) and we are ecstatic! This is a band close to our collective hearts. Dave played viola on some of their recordings! This is the third year running that we have done a show together so it looks like a tradition in the making. Even if you cannot be in Munich, please check out their website and listen to their music!

We hope you will be able  to join us for these two nights of music.

The shows are being presented by Sofa Klub (http://www.sofaklub-konzerte.de/), please visit the site for more information.

Willard Grant Cospiracy SOLO in London


 Or another way of saying that Robert will be playing and singing songs with a guitar. 

 This is the website for the Half Moon Pub in London: www.halfmoonpub.co.uk
The last time we played here it was a great time and we learned to love the music of The Monroe Transfer. Pennyblack Music Magazine (www.pennyblackmusic.co.uk ) is running the night and they always put on a dangerously good show. Tickets are available now.

 We hope you will be able to attend the entire night but come when you can and leave when you must!

Sometimes, Ghost Republic sounds like this...
