about

Ghost of the Year was recorded while Angela Correa from Correatown visited London, England in the Fall of 2013 for a songwriting week with Music Sales (a great indie publisher). She and Angela Penhaligon of Piney Gir has always talked about working on a song together, so they planned for a day together one weekend afternoon. Angela C brought a song that needed a little shaping and a few more lyrics to Oliver Horton's studio and together the three of them crafted this spare and haunting song about time, loss, wanting, waiting and hopefulness. Garo Nahoulakian of Piney Gir arrived just as they were wrapping up and added a bit of slide guitar and bass.

Magic, all around.

Then they all went down the street to the pub and enjoyed fish and chips, with a few pints.

lyrics

Over the line I see you stumble
I didn't want to be your trouble

I know this year has been harder than most
Feels like sometimes
You want to give up the ghost that's chasing you around
That's chasing you around

Some of the time it feels the season never ends
Biding your time through winter longing for Spring

I know this year has been harder than most
Feels like sometimes
You want to give up the ghost that's chasing you around
That's chasing you around

And if you feel like giving up, you feel like giving in
Well, I 'm here
We are the lucky ones

Wait it out
Indian Summer could bring long lasting golden days

I know this year has been harder than most
Feels like sometimes
You want to give up the ghost that's chasing you around
That's chasing you around
That's chasing you around
That's chasing you around
That's chasing...

about

correatown Los Angeles, California

Correatown was a name someone called her once. Imagine the lights that slowly haze by when you're driving home late at night bleary eyed, or the night sky heavy with clouds just after a thunderstorm. It's Angela Correa's band daydream fully realized in a dark club filled with the reverberating layers of washy guitars, beautiful harmonies, growling fuzzed out analog synths and that voice. ... more
