Forming a little over a year ago, Ghost Town Blues Band has already added their unique voice to the Blues/Jam Scene. Evolving in Memphis, TN, GTBB’s sound can be described as Gritty, Electric, Blues, Soul and Hill-Country Funk. This blend of genres results in a musical experience that appeals to a range of audiences, with a sound that is refreshingly original yet, keeps the dance floor groovin’.
GTBB performs in festivals, clubs and parties across the nation. Sharing the stage or performing late-night after-parties for such national acts as Billy Gibson, Daddy Mack, Shinedown, Todd Snider, Bobby Rush, The North Mississippi All-Stars, Sinbad, Dryvin’ & Cryin’, Cross Canadian Ragweed, Blind Mississippi Morris, the band is always groovin’ on the beat and making thousands dance like their grandpappy used to do.
