Canadian group Ghost Caravan shared with us one of their best songs to date titled “Girls Talk”. This song brings up memories of being a teenager. Silver-Baird pictures the nostalgic image of a bunch of girls huddled together giggling, talking and gossiping. She loves the thought of those young girls knowing that there’s power in what they say, no matter what they choose to use their voice for – whether it’s trivial or powerful.
The energy of this song is so beautiful and the production is creative and sounds professional. The song comes with an outstanding music video that will definitely give you a better experience while listening. The vocalist has one of the purest and most charming vices we’ve ever heard and this song shows off all of the melodic tones of her stunning voice. The production of this song and the singing voice mesh together perfectly which allows the melodies to sparkle. The lyrics are well written and the atmosphere is beautifully unique. This band is professional and their music is enjoyable and sets them apart from the crowd. This song is a great experience from start to finish and it left us super excited to see where this group’s career will go over the coming months!
ABOUT THE BAND:
Ghost Caravan is a group of collaborators lead by Shaina Silver-Baird, Juliana Iannuzziello, Michelle Faehrmann and Sarah Riegler. Her “ghosts” are what inform the music that Silver-Baird writes. Whether they are the ghosts of specific people, the ghosts of past loves or the ghosts of experience, this caravan of ghosts is the origin of her songs. “My music is still about dark places, but I focus on finding the light, the moment when you realize your own strength and ability to move forward. We want to be proud to share our songs with young women. There are so many voices in the world telling women how to think and feel about themselves. We want to be the voice that celebrates women. We want to empower and uplift people.”
On their recent single, Love Me If You Dare, the group collaborated with Martha Johnson and Mark Gane of Martha and the Muffins. Silver-Baird says, “We love creating music with other people. The end result is so much better because of the many points of view, different opinions and experiences that are woven into the song.”
The music itself is orchestral soultronica. The Ghost Caravan live show mixes electronic elements with live instruments creating a sound that is cinematic and invigorating. Silver-Baird elaborates, “We want to continue to push in the direction of personal/poetic lyrics coupled with grand, dramatic tracks. We want to develop the soulful core along with the orchestral element. It’s such an exciting sound – very contemporary and yet derived from something deeper and older. We love how celebratory it is. It’s as if we get to see the world through glasses that make the colours a bit more vibrant and the moments a bit more joyous. And getting to play these songs live with an all-female band is an exciting, powerful experience. Plus, it’s just so damn fun!”
