Ghost Car Conductor
Welcome to the Official Ghost Car Conductor Page! We are a four-piece instrumental rock group out of New York. We play mostly original material--groovy, droney, sometimes noisy rock and roll with frequent improvisations and breakdowns.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
GCC formed out of a group of friends working and living together in New York. We have been together about a year, and practice out of a small space in Brooklyn.
Your musical influences
As influences, we sometimes cite Yo La Tengo, Neil Young, Sonic Youth, Phish...rock and roll as well as blues and jazz artists.
What equipment do you use?
Fritz, one of our guitarists, is the equipment-monger. He uses 2 digital delay pedals through stereo amps, as well as pre-recorded analog sounds.
Anything else?
Lynne and Fritz--bass and guitar--sometimes switch instruments for variety. Lynne and Marc, the drummer, work closely together to keep a solid groove throughout the song, and John, the second guitarist, is our resident harmonic genius! Our writing is always a collaborative effH2C mostly rising out of unplanned jams.
