Feral Ghost are a London based, 6 piece, Melodic Rock band.
Consistently strong melodies, stadium sized hooks, thoughtful lyrics, heartfelt vocals and infectious energy!
Feral Ghost’s blend of classic songwriting, layered harmonies and accomplished musicianship,
combined with memorable melodies and sharp modern production, has helped the band establish a unique musical voice since it was first put together by singer/songwriter Danny
Warwick in 2012.
The London-based group’s debut album A Gathering Storm in 2014 was immediately singled out
by reviewers and radio stations for its consistently strong melodies, and stadium sized hooks.
The album was also nominated for CD of the year by Indie Music Digest, which called it “an
impressive debut statement that clearly proves this band is a force to be reckoned with in UK and
beyond”.
Feral Ghost’s classic melodic sensibilities and guitar driven sound have brought comparisons with
the likes of Fleetwood Mac, the Eagles and Pink Floyd, as well as the indie pop and rock sounds
of Coldplay and Snow Patrol. But the 6-piece band’s blend of thoughtful lyrics, heartfelt vocals
and infectious energy are entirely its own.
During this next couple of years Feral Ghost consolidated their success with a string of concerts across the UK, including festivals and other established music venues. As a result, the group gained a swathe of new loyal followers by showcasing how well their emotionally powerful combination of up-tempo, feel-good tunes and slow burn anthems translated to live performances.
Towards the end of 2018, the band went back into the studio to record a follow up album. But
unforeseen personal circumstances, followed by the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020,
meant that new music has taken longer than anticipated. But now, after using this time to put the
full force of their creativity into a new body of work, Feral Ghost are back with a stunning new full
length album, Speed of Light, which will be released on March 21st.
Reflecting the turbulent and uncertain times of its creation, the album contains an incredible
collection of 12 songs that span themes ranging from fear and loss to love and hope.
Taking the band’s complex multi layered sound and sophisticated arrangements to a new level,
while never straying from clarity of purpose and honesty of emotion, Speed of Light is Feral
Ghost’s most coherent, uncompromising and beautiful artistic statement so far.
Their singles This Is Life and Could This Be Love, went on to reach No.3 and No.7 in the Official European Independent Music Chart, as well as charting strongly in the US!
