Boot Stompin' American Music
Christian Serpas & Ghost Town play rocked out, revved up country music. Call it whatever you like - Americana, alt.country, roots music - however you describe them one thing is certain, Ghost Town has never met a crowd they didn't rock.
"The first time we opened a show for a big name country act, their road manager said we sounded like Led Zeppelin playing Johnny Cash," says Serpas. "We considered that a good start."
Hundreds of shows later, Ghost Town's new "SIX PACK" CD reinforces the critical acclaim that's been heaped upon the band along their way. Jam-packed with catchy, memorable songs about love, loss and yearning, along with fist-pumping, working man's anthems and their rip-roaring interpretation of the Johnny Cash classic Folsom Prison, Six Pack is a cool, sparkling addition to the Ghost Town story.
Just four months after forming, Ghost Town won the New Orleans Jimmy Dean True Value Country Showdown, and were soon sharing stages with everyone who's anyone in country music (Merle Haggard, Dwight Yoakam, Montgomery Gentry, Kenny Chesney, Pat Green, Cross Canadian Ragweed and over 40 others), hitting the honky-tonks and festivals throughout the Gulf South, selling thousands of their CDs and their now famous "God Bless Johnny Cash" t-shirts
Ghost Town's first CD, "Electric Hoedown", was voted "ALBUM OF THE YEAR" by readers of Tambalaya magazine, who also voted Serpas "MALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR". Their followup CD, "Giddy Up", was named one of the TOP CDS OF THE YEAR by Offbeat Magazine, and nominated as LOUISIANA COUNTRY ALBUM OF THE YEAR in their Best of the Beat awards.
