We Were Born As Ghosts(NEW Recordings Posted)

About Me

Look beyond the dim lights of Albuquerque, NM and tune your ears into the stellar stations that lay over the glowing heights, and somewhere in-between the streets and the blinking twilight above, there is an energy that can be tapped. This is where We Were Born as Ghosts has drawn their inspiration. They present themselves as a collective of artists performing their works to the willing. Tied together by a communal approach at songwriting, they aim to produce songs that take listeners on a dramatic journey. Presenting themselves with a debut self produced E.P. titled Winter, a successful Southwest mini-tour, and a 30 day tour of the Mid-West under their belt, We Were Born as Ghosts are all dressed up with somewhere to go.

If you can help us with any of these dates, please message us! If you would like us to play in your town, please message us as well!
