Hungry Ghosts marks the first of, what will hopefully become, many collections of original music by guitarist and songwriter John Simon. Taking cues from virtually every style of American music, John seamlessly blends country, jazz, folk, bluegrass, and soul music in a way that feels completely natural. The music is to the point, honest, vulnerable, and once it gets in your ear you’ll want it to stay there. This is an artist you’ll want say you knew about first.
