Intro

Ghost Hounds is a Pittsburgh-based blues rock collective founded by guitarist and entrepreneur Thomas Tull. The band's identity is defined by a 'supergroup' approach to session-quality musicianship, featuring veterans who have played with John Mellencamp and Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Their sound is a sophisticated blend of traditional blues, Southern rock, and soul, characterized by high-production values that distinguish them from the lo-fi aesthetic of many modern blues-revivalists. Since their 2019 resurgence with 'Roses are Black,' they have occupied a unique cultural space as a premier opening act for legendary stadium tours, including The Rolling Stones and ZZ Top. This exposure has cemented their reputation as a bridge between classic rock's golden era and the modern Americana scene. Critically, they are noted for the vocal prowess of Tre' Nation, whose soul and gospel background provides a melodic counterpoint to the band's hard-driving riffs. Their trajectory reflects a commitment to the 'album as an art form,' maintaining a prolific release schedule that explores the intersection of country-rock storytelling and electric blues intensity.
