The Ghost Is Dancing Battle On

Toronto's The Ghost Is Dancing will fight for music fans' attention when Sonic Unyon releases Battles On on April 28.

The follow-up to the energetic indie pop group's 2006 self-titled debut EP and 2007's The Darkest Spark was recorded by drummer/keyboardist Kevin Corlis, bassist Eric Krumins, singer/guitarist/keyboardist Jamie Matechuk, keyboardist Odie Ouderkirk, keyboardist/vocalist Lesley Davies and guitarist/trombonist Dave Kates with producer Chris Stringer (Ohbijou, The Coast).
