Don't Believe In Ghosts
Apr 28, 2021
Don’t Believe In Ghosts recently premiered the incredibly innovative new video adventure for their new single "Put Your Head Back." The track was mixed by Mark Needham (The Killers, Imagine Dragons). Needham stated, "Love this band and this song! Very talented group and one to watch." The band has been signed to Imagen Records for the forthcoming new album, Solutions due on May 14, 2021. Imagen Head Of A&R Morgan Rose said, "I’ve been a fan of this band for years. Clever, fun, and songs filled with hooks. It puts me in a good mood every-time I listen to them. I’m so excited to have them on Imagen."
The night the world shutdown in 2020, Don’t Believe In Ghosts was set to headline Brooklyn's Knitting Factory. This was on the heels of two sold-out headline shows at New York City’s Iconic Bowery Ballroom and the band's first U.S. tour to support their 2020 single, “Living Like This.” 2020 was a tough year for lead singer Steven Nathan and his family as his brother Robert Nathan passed away from COVID 19..
Nathan said, "This band has always been about seeing the light in the darkness. It’s always been about optimism, growth, and lifting people up. There were a few months there where I couldn’t even lift myself up anymore, it became very hard to focus. ‘Put Your Head Back’ is a defiant statement about no longer going down that path and re-aligning who you are and where you are going.”
Don't Believe in Ghosts began in Nathan’s home studio in 2017. The band is rounded out by Dan DelVecchio on Guitar, Alex Goumas on Bass and Ken Yang on Drums. The bands’ achievements include song features on many TV shows including ‘Ink Master’ and The U.S. Open. Don’t Believe In Ghosts teamed up with 8-time Grammy-winning mixer Ken Lewis on their previous single "Don’t Wake Me Up" and the video featured famed comedic actor Gilbert Gottfried.
Describing the meaning behind the band's name, Nathan said, "Don’t give energy to the ghosts of your past. Worrying about what other people may think can be draining and debilitating."
