Jukebox the Ghost Announces Tour Dates, New Album OFF TO THE RACES Out Now  Image

Jukebox the Ghost officially released their new studio album, Off To The Races, on March 30th via Jukebox the Ghost/Caroline. Ben Thornewill(piano, vocals), Jesse Kristin (percussion, vocals), and Tommy Siegel(guitar, bass, vocals) bring piano-pop to the next level with standout tracks like the Queen-inspired "Jumpstarted" and the anthemic single, "Everybody's Lonely," which is at #27 on the Alternative Charts and continues to rise.

"The idea for 'Everybody's Lonely' actually came out of a conversation with my grandmother. She grew up in a small town in Minnesota and was a little girl during World War Two. We were talking about the songs she grew up with and she told me that when she was young, she asked her mother why all the songs were about love and her mother answered, 'Because everyone is so lonesome, dear.' This, of course, was during wartime - all the men (yep) of appropriate age had left and the town was quiet, or rather quiet even for Bayport, Minnesota. We live in a different time now, but the human experience is still the same - most songs on the radio are still about love in some form or another." - Ben Thornewill told to Consequence of Sound
