Great Peacock are a folk band from Nashville. Making Ghosts (Opaque blue double 120 gram vinyl, double-gatefold - three sides of music, fourth side blank with download card) - their harmony heavy, guitar-driven debut album, finds the middle ground between rootsy, down-home Americana and super-sized arena pop/rock will perform at SXSW followed by a US tour in April-May. Andrew Nelson and Blount Floyd first crossed paths in their early 20's, bonding instantly over a shared love of cheap beer and good Southern music. After logging several years together in a loud, Tennessee-based rock band, they split off to form their own project, swapping out the amplified swagger of their previous group for a straightforward sound anchored by acoustic guitars, anthemic melodies and two intertwined voices. Like an old-school harmony duo retuned for a new generation, they started off with a handful of classic influences - the country croon of George Jones, the working class rock & roll of Bruce Springsteen, the heartland hum of Tom Petty - and expanded their sound from there, turning Great Peacock into the sort of band that's simultaneously rooted in tradition and headed toward new territory. Making Ghost, Church Bells, Tennessee, Take Me To The Mountain, Go Back, Desert Lark, Gulf Dreams, Broken Hearted Fool, Summer Song, Arms, Higher Ground
