The Lusitanian Ghosts have released, to date, a single “The LongTrain”, recorded without the use of any electric guitar – just and only based on traditional regional violas, following the formula developed by the group, of practicing a fusion between the sound of popular Portuguese and European string instruments, and an alternative rock n ́roll aesthetic.

Traditional violas, such as the Beiroa, the Campaniça, the Braguesa, the Terceirense, or the Amarantina, each with specific tunings and arrangements, combined with several other European string instruments, in a unique symbiosis between traditional music and contemporary, giving these popular instruments an approach based on a socio-political perspective, with a view to creating a better world, through compositions aimed at the mind and heart.

Neil Layton and Micke Ghost, founders of the Lusitanian Ghosts collective, do not hide their enormous passion for rock n ́roll rooted in remarkable vocal traditions ranging from Elvis Presley to David Bowie, writing songs in an appealing folk-rock line, among others, to fans the Waterboys or Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds.

Join the current lineup of the Lusitanian Ghosts collective João Sousa (Drums and Adufe), Abel Beja (Primitive Reason, Beak Scenatrio, Terceira viola), António Bexiga (RAIA, Campaniça viola) and Jan-Eric Olsson (Beirão bass and viola – more serious cousin of the viola Beiroa, manufactured by the hands of the luthier Fernando Deghi in Castelo Branco).

“Lusitanian Ghosts III” will be released on LP in vinyl versions in Mono and Stereo.
