Ghost Mice is a two-piece folk-punk band that hails from Bloomington, IN. Ghost Mice was created from the ashes of former pop-punk bands The Devil Is Electric and Operation: Cliff Clavin. Chris Johnston (aka Chris Clavin) and Hannah who played guitar and bass respectively for OP:CC and TDIE, decided to make their act acoustic so they could tour more easily and play almost anywhere. In their own words: “We play 100% acoustic. We never use amps or mics (except once at Plan-It-X Fest). We have been playing in bands together for about 7 years.
We started Ghost Mice in 2002 because we tired of being restricted. We were tired of having to travel in big vans and depend on amps, PA systems and electricity. With Ghost Mice we can travel very light and we need nothing to play. We often play in back yards or on the street corner in front of the venue. We have toured the USA many times and we toured Europe (Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, Austria, France, Spain, Belgium, England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland) by foot. We hitch-hiked and took trains to all of our shows. It was fun and very liberating. We sing a mix of personal and political lyrics, we are anarchist, we are dedicated to the DIY ethic and the struggle to make the world a better place. We play music and travel for fun and to meet new people. Music is our lives. We love travel. We are nice and a little shy.” The previous quote can be found here. Hannah dropped her bass in favor of a violin.

In case you guys didn't know, this was from Ghost Mice's page on Facebook. "Ghost Mice will have a new album out before Christmas. It's gonna be what was gonna be my solo album, but, I hate playing solo, so, Hannah, Matty Pop Chart, Eric Ayotte, Pascaloo and Gary are gonna join up and we're recording this album... + 1 or 2 other tracks. Here are demos: http://chrisclavin.bandcamp.com/album/for-sam-we-must-demo-versions";

I should also note the one thing I absolutely hate about Defiance, Ohio are the vocals...these are just as shitty. Guess I should stick to the first half of this split.

So I'm listening to the split w/ AJJ - hearing Ghost Mice for the first time...these vocalists aren't in Defiance, Ohio? Both the male and female sound just like members I've heard on the Great Depression.

"RamaWirawan: If you hate this band, or if you said this band is shit, maybe you are too conservative." Or maybe he's just a dumbass troll who talks shit on every folk punk band's artist page just to incite a reaction. That being said, I really don't even enjoy Ghost Mice that much myself, they're just "pretty good".
