Paul Johnson and The About Last Nights new EP “Give Up The Ghost” is a must have!

 

Our latest Spotlight Band is none other than Paul Johnson and the About Last Nights. These  Hattiesburg, Mississippi-based Power Pop / Alternative Rockers have released their new EP, Give Up The Ghost in May and it is a must have! Their music brings to life the “power” of power pop in a big way, reeling with infectious riffs, high energy rock, emotionally driven lyrics and addictive melodies. Their EP kicks off with Underachiever and is surely a misnomer for their musical skills! It has you singing along in no time and enjoying the straight up feel good rock music.

Burn It Down is the first single of the album and is the perfect introduction for new fans to get hooked on their music. Paul Johnson comments about the track,  “Really, it’s adolescence. Being young, bored and hopeful that one day things will be whatever we make it, but right now is all that matters. Looking back as adults, we sometimes see that maybe those were the best times of our lives. Getting through those years feels like an eternity, but in the grand scheme of things, it is only a moment.”

Check out the video for the song:

American Story (Adrenaline) is a kick ass song that has a Foo Fighters and Tom Petty vibe and oozes with high energy. The guitars are fierce with smoking riffs, and along with the passionate vocals, delivers an intense build up. Hollywood is my favorite track on the EP and has a stellar anthemic sing along vibe with straight up rock n roll from start to finish.

Closing out the EP is their cover of John Waite’s Missing You. They definitely “own it” when they perform this cover. The vocals carry a raw authentic passion that is exactly what this track is all about. You can feel the emotion and it is one amazing cover!
