Ghost Hounds is a Blues Rock band based proudly out of Pittsburgh. They have toured and shared stages with legendary acts such as Garth Brooks, ZZ Top, Bob Seger, The Rolling Stones, and others. They just recently performed with Sheryl Crow and Darius Rucker at the American Rodeo in Dallas. Ghost Hounds has just released “Dirty Angel,” the first single from their forthcoming studio album due to be released later this year. It will be the band’s fourth album, and the second official release on the Gibson Records label.
In this interview, vocalist Tré Nation and lead guitarist Johnny Baab talk about the name of the band, their writing process, their new single and forthcoming album, and the song you should play for someone that has never heard the band. They also discuss Gibson Records, touring with the Stones, and their intentions on touring with the new record.

Hello everyone! My name is Scott Itter, but some know me as Dr. Music. I am a music journalist and photographer out of the Chicagoland area, and I have been in practice for over 20 years. I grew up in the 70’s with two big brothers that showed me all kinds of rock and roll. As I grew older I ventured out into different genres like jazz, funk, folk, and whatever else I could wrap my ears around. As I read every liner note and every Circus and Hit Parader like they were the Old and New Testament, I came to realize that I just love sound and appreciate all the people that create it.
I later became a stay-at-home dad and started honing my writing and photography skills to keep my mind from turning into mashed peas. My kids are now adults, my mind is only slightly mushy, and I am thrilled to have the honor of presenting my work to you!
