Bio
Morose Ghost started as a project for North Carolinian Jesse Latham to amuse himself musically. It resulted in the album Life is Good, an experimental chamber-pop storybook boasting an ironically gloomy title in relation to its lyrical core which weaves a grim fairytale based in tragedy. Recorded predominantly on a four-track, the record resembles an intimate personal account confessed by Latham and upon its release, subsequently amused an audience larger than himself. A writer and multi-instrumentalist, Latham succeeds in creating both interesting sonic atmospheres and detailed character pieces. Morose Ghost expanded with the addition of percussionist/programmer John Bowman and are currently in between labels while they record the follow-up, “an aural extravaganza about bipolarity and monsters.”
