Cherry Ghost is a British alt. country band. They formed in Manchester in 2005 and enjoy considerable airplay on BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music. Their debut album, Thirst For Romance, entered the UK album charts at #7. Their new album, 3 years in the making entitled “Beneath This Burning Shoreline” was released in mid 2010. Lyrically the new album weaves narratives of revenge and loss, the spectre of hope and the triumph of spirit.
In 2008 the band won a prestigious Ivor Novello award for ‘People Help The People’, a recognition of Simon Aldred’s evocative songwriting.
The band have supported Amy Winehouse, Doves, Crowded House,, and Smog

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e0yPMl8CZXM - Incredible acoustic cover of Cece Peniston's 'Finally'. Would have much prefered that over the 'Time and Space edit' version.
