Cherry Ghost - "4am"

'4 AM' is the third single from Cherry Ghost, already recognised as one of most exciting new bands of the year.

Their first album Thirst For Romance debuted in the Top 10 and received outstanding plaudits across the board. After a series of sell-out gigs around the UK and festival appearances at Glastonbury and Latitude among others, the band continue to find new fans with their unique blend of electrified poetic storytelling. Cherry Ghost are that rare thing -- a commercially successful group who have got there on their own terms and by doing what they do best -- which is quietly but persistently creating atmospheric, intelligent music that's not afraid to be bold. With a repertoire of songs that go way beyond catchy melodies and rousing choruses, Cherry Ghost manage to create a musical world of their own that's as strong and as all-encompassing as a fictional voice.

saw these at V at the weekend - the tent was 4/5 empty, maybe 200 people in there. they were absolutely fucking amazing, just a shame most of the people who went to V would rather ogle at peter-fucking-andre on the main stage. pretty embarrassing really.

I really love this song - what a great lyric and lovely tune,

but to be honest i'd be strugglin to dislike any of their stuff, the songs are original and inspiring , the band lay great together & the whole thing just works in a very unassuming not pompous but killer way .

"hard times, hole in my heart, who stole the sun and

left me alone again

give me a guiding light, a stretch of sky and a hand on

my shoulder ... " easy lovely song with truly deep emotions ..

Cherry Ghost are splendid...just the ticket.

Genius, this whole album was classic. I predict that just like the Smiths, everybody will be loving them 20 years on and 20 years too late. A lesson in the art of songwriting.

@luckyhorsecinema Been a fan for years, I'm like you...it's all good to my ears. Saw them supporting The Coral last year in Leeds...Coral very workmanlike...lots of instrument changing etc. but these guys gave a pretty spine-tingling set...even my hard bitten mate turned to me and said, that was good that! :)
