Ghost is a musical project by guitar-composer Jo De Geest. Their music
shows influences from modal and free jazz as well as contemporary
classical and progressive rock music. The compositions create a
cinematic atmosphere which alternates with parts of conventional groove,
and are linked together and broken up by focused improvisation pieces.
The band started in 2010 as a school project and got selected for the prestigious competition of the Ghent Jazz festival. In 2013 they finished their first EP and a year later they won the contest of “Muziekmozaïek” in the category of Jazz. Earlier this year the band played in the finale of the second Storm!-contest (Ostend) and in November they confine themselves to the recording studio. Their first full album For A Year They’ve Slept will be released in April 2016. Keep your eyes peeled!
