At its core, the group is Kat Maslich and Peter Adams. Both are vocalists, instrumentalists and writers imprinted with the undeniable regional character one might expect from children of the South. Their music is an alloy of hill-country melodies, contemporary studio techniques and literary-minded lyrics that frequently trace the experience of loss. Peter describes the project's sonic evolution: "We started with acoustic and other organic sounds and then degraded them to come up with a whole new flavor. Mitchell helped us do that with his arsenal of vintage keyboards." Drummer/percussionist Quinn, with his loop-oriented style of playing, also became integral to the eastmountainsouth sound.

Ghost Lyrics

Eastmountainsouth

the ghost of you
has almost faded now
youre drifting in and out
of my life
when leaves fall you'll come right back
cause I was yours for a little while
you will always be
a ghost who lives and breathes
and you lay me down in reverie
every tear that falls
remember me
and I thought I heard your haunting sigh
like your love for me, you said it will never die
but Ive grown accustomed to your long good-bye
I wish you were mine
Hey... you were mine
you will always be
a love who failed to see
it was cold inside your mystery
every year that falls
remember me
and I cant let you go
I can't let you go
no
you will always be
a ghost who lives and breathes
and you broke my heart
but I'll make you see
every tear that falls
remember me
hey......
hey......
hey....... yeah....
every tear that falls
remember me...
