Ghost of a Dog hail from Monmouth, South Wales, UK . Their impressively accomplished debut album, Full Moon Crime Spree was produced by Ron Rogers (T’Pau). Their music is influenced by Alt Country and Americana yet retains a distinctive flavour true to their Welsh roots. It may be a bit of a cliché but Tamzin Powell’s powerful and emotional vocals bring to mind some of the finest voices to come out of Wales in recent history. We are delighted to be supporting the release of this excellent album. "Fresh and Exciting...impressive debut characterised by stunning vocals... They've hit the ground running and not missed a step" ** - Maverick Country "....highly melodic, well crafted songs ........one of the strongest, richest voices to be heard on the British alt-country scene." - Bristol Evening Post "..a beautiful and very modern sounding album ...moving stories...charismatic vocals...this is quality!" - Rootstime "One of the elements that is apparent from this album is the sheer power of Tamzin's vocals - Janis Joplin comes to mind" - Electric Ghost "Songs that stand above the norm ...Tamzin is a country Kate Bush if ever there was one" - Soundsnew.com "Wonderful folk tinged rockin Americana" - Medicine Show Radio "Exquisite Alt-country...... A sublime treat" - The Forester "...most delicious......melodic Americana." - www.altcountryforum.nl**
