Four years after his rock juggernaut Puritan, Chris Brokaw delivers Ghost Ship, a landscape meditation (at sea) for vocals and electric guitars.

“I set out to make an 8 song statement like Desert Shore or Raw Power, but it became a 9 song… something else. I’ve described it to friends as Twin Peaks-ish but that feels only part right. The songs were written on a 60’s Teisco Del Rey electric guitar, set up by the Belgian luthier Flip Scipio with heavy gauge flat wound strings and an .80 gauge low E string tuned down to a low A, which reframes how you play the instrument. I wrote them all quickly in a kind of fever.”—Brokaw
