Lonely Ghosts is the brainchild of Brighton based musician Tom Denney. During the past four years Denney has been co-vocalist and guitarist in the south coast indie-noise kids Help She Can’t Swim, with whom he recorded 2 albums, a host of singles and EPs and toured the world playing with the likes of the Blood Brothers, Sleater Kinney, CSS, Deerhoof and Melt Banana.

When a period of downtime from Help She Can’t Swim arose, Denney took the opportunity to explore what he could create outside of the group songwriting dynamic. With a handful of songs and ideas rattling around his head Denney retreated to his home studio with a laptop, a collection of guitars and keyboards and a CD of drum machine samples and settled into a personal experiment in solo song writing. He emerged 8 weeks later under the pseudonym of Lonely Ghosts with nearly an albums worth of material and a definitive project. Exploring more pop, electro and acoustic influences than HSCS, Lonely ghosts is an eclectic amalgamation of sounds all held together by his love for a pure ‘pop’ tune.
