Glass Ghost plays two shows at PS122 this weekend (03.28-29)

Glass Ghost‘s only release to date is the 2009’s stunning album "Idol Omen," which earned them a Deli Record of the Month review and our 21st issue’s cover. But this doesn’t mean that the band hasn’t been active since then: a look through their Facebook wall reveals a series of sparse but well chosen shows in support of quality NYC artists like Buke and Gase, Hospitality, Sharon Van Etten, Here We Go Magic, and Yellow Ostrich among others; which makes us think that if the Glass Ghost’s guys run this blog they would write about the same bands we do. This weekend the duo (formed by Eliot Krimsky, now a member of Here We Go Magic, and Mike Johnson, drummer for Dirty Projectors) has a residency at PS122 where they’ll showcase a new, interactive live show, during which they will display audience input (photos, personal information, Facebook/Twitter pages) on projection screens in an attempt to probe identity in the internet age questioning what a true identity is. There’s a survey the band is asking attendees to fill before the show (here – Info from the survey will appear on the projection screens) – this should be interesting, and if it won’t, the music will be worth the $10 admission ticket anyway.
