I know Holy Ghost has already had their name out there for awhile, but I’m not going to lie, they’re one of my favorite groups to come in the last year or so. Since they produce a sound that has a special place in my heart, it would only be right for me to post about them.
I’ve always been inspired by the disco era and Holy Ghost definitely takes elements from the genre and add their own unique style. They add enough danceable melodies and emotion it can make anyone want to cry on the dance floor.

Here is a clip of the band working in the studio on their single “Hold On”. Oh what? Who is that sitting in the opening shot? Oh that’s only the chubbiest man in dance music, DFA label co-owner and Mr. LCD himself, James Murphy helping with production. If anyone can lead the Nü-Disco revolution it’d be J. Murphy.
