THE SPOOKLIGHTS

Banjos and beats. Slide guitar and synth. Harmonicas and laser beams.. The Spooklights are what happens when Ozark tradition collides with homemade electronic wizardry. Ben Miller and Pat Kay — stalwarts of Midwest mountain music — soldered their roots to circuitry, creating a jangle-stomp time machine to explore hillbilly music from another dimension. Part folklore, part science fiction, their sound is familiar and otherworldly all at once: ancient, yet from some distant future.
