New York-based husband and wife musical duo, Ghost Prom, made up of Cameron and Eden Crosby, has released their latest single, “5am,” a song preceding their upcoming full-length album set for release on November 17.
Ghost Prom began one rainy morning in Vancouver, where creativity boomed over a shared cup of coffee and a weathered guitar. It began as an effortless investigation of melodies, but became a musical partnership that would encapsulate their journey as partners both lovingly and musically.
Their first song, “Swamp Eyes,” was born on that morning, and set the tone for their future endeavors– raw, authentic, and unapologetically honest. Now based in Upstate New York, the duo’s music is an intricate genre woven from diverse influences like Elliot Smith, Sam Shepard, and even early Johnny Depp movies. Through lyrics that explore the vulnerability that circles humanity, as well as the triumph that comes with it, Ghost Prom invites listeners into their world to share their struggles and triumphs as a source of both solace and connection.
Ghost Prom’s single, “5am,” was recorded in a barn studio just up the street from Cameron and Eden’s Hudson Valley home. The single discusses a deeply personal and haunting exploration through the struggles of addiction, with a hopeful portrayal of redemption by way of “telling the truth.”
The inspiration to Cameron comes from the late, intimate poet Mark Linkous (Sparklehorse), with Aaron Mones in recording, production, and lead guitar, helped the duo create their distinctive blend of small room indie rock with neo-noir folk known as “5am.” This single launches listeners into the refreshing new sound of Ghost Prom: impactful, yet pumping.
“5am” comes out today, September 22, and their full-length album comes out on November 17.
