Ghost Caravan is a group of collaborators led by Shaina Silver-Baird. Her “ghosts” are what inform the music that she writes. Whether they are the ghosts of specific people, the ghosts of past loves or the ghosts of experience, this caravan of ghosts is the origin of her songs.Ghost Caravan’s new single “Live Out Loud” is an electro-pop anthem for people who feel cast out for being different, for people who have something important to say and for people who want to live in full color and at full volume.
The music itself is orchestral soultronica. The Ghost Caravan live show mixes electronic elements with live instruments creating a sound that is cinematic and invigorating. “I want to continue to push in the direction of personal/poetic lyrics coupled with grand, dramatic tracks. I want to develop the soulful core along with the orchestral element. It’s such an exciting sound–very contemporary and yet derived from something deeper and older. I love how celebratory it is. It’s as if we get to see the world through glasses that make the colours a bit more vibrant and the moments a bit more joyous.And getting to play these songs live with an all-female band is an exciting, powerful experience.Plus, it’s just so damn fun!”
