Once upon a time, before this incredible band became a collective, it was the solo vision of composer and multi-instrumentalist Seth Applebaum. Since then, he’s grown his dream into the fully-fledged outfit it is today. Their live shows are the stuff of legend. That’s why, following their 2022 performance at our festival, we asked for more. Grooving to Ghost Funk Orchestra is a slide down Alice’s rabbit hole, if Alice was the kind of girl who lived in her headphones and wore only dancing shoes. Numerous sounds come into play, be it salsa, soul and far-out, dreamy rock. One music blogger described GFO’s sound as a “psych odyssey of traditional sounds delivered in a non-traditional fashion.” All we know is, you’ll love the horns, the soulful vocals and the heady experimentation.
