Bridges and Powerlines - Ghost Types

Bridges and Powerlines is an indie rock band from New York. Their first full length debut album entitled Ghost Types are scheduled to release on April 22 under Citybird Records.

The band cited their influences from bands like Pavement, Spoon, Neutral Milk Hotel, Wolf Parade, Built To Spill, Guided By Voices, The Hollies and The Wrens.

"Writing the songs for their debut full-length, Bridges and Powerlines began to notice a recurring motif: the male struggle for maturity despite the persistence of boyhood impulses. The stories that populate "Ghost Types" include a diverse collection of such conflicted protagonists: a depression-era film director, a Bangladeshi cab driver, the captain of a doomed steam ship, and a host of others." - read the complete bio at the band's MySpace page.
