On April 18, The Ghost Inside held their first band practice since their fatal 2015 bus crash. The band has been trying to come ever since they were doing a little better medically, but constant health-related issues related to the crash have kept them from doing so.
One of the most heartbreaking setbacks was that The Ghost Inside wanted to play Warped Tour 2017 or this year's final Warped Tour, but weren't well enough to do so. So the band practice was a huge deal and now The Ghost Inside has some even better news for fans – they're going to carry on.
In a statement, the band says there is a future for them. They also state that every Monday, they'll have a different band member take over their social media to give updates on their health alongside sneak peeks of what's to come.
We wish The Ghost Inside all the best in their future endeavors.
This is The Ghost Inside 2018. We weren’t always sure we would make it here. All along we’ve said ‘let’s just get in a room with instruments and see what happens’. Andrew gave us 4 clicks and we sailed off into Between the Lines. Over the next few hours we hacked our way through a dozen or so songs, one at a time. Everything is different. Fingers and feet and throats that have played these songs a thousand times don’t operate on autopilot anymore. But there was something special, something beautiful, in doing the thing we love by sheer force of will. Spending a week together as bandmates answered the question that has been on all of our minds – yes there is a future for TGI.
We still aren’t sure exactly what it looks like. It might be one show, it might be a few shows. It could be a new song or a whole new record. Our journey into that future is just beginning, and we will bring everyone that is interested along with us. Every Monday, one band member will take over all of our social media to give you insight and updates on their personal progress, as well as glimpses behind the scenes of what we are doing as The Ghost Inside as this new chapter unfolds. We know that this is a new normal but hey, the same old thing gets boring right? Thanks for proving that you are the Tried and True.
