Lockdown part 2 and it’s all about getting by really isn’t it? As if to sum up that mood Edinburgh four-piece Ghost Dance Collective have just released their second EP called just that, with four stripped-back songs that perfectly soundtrack this second phase.
​
Put together during the first lockdown period, the ‘Getting By’ EP brings together an assortment of oddities and rarities, sweet harmonies sung over 6 and 12 string acoustic guitar with just a tambourine to help them along them. Its music to stare out of the window to and forget your troubles to. 
Picture
In some ways Getting By feels like quite a departure from their debut album, although the sixties psychedelic influence is still clear and apparent – like The Byrds doing an unplugged session. The band urge us to approach the EP ‘with an open mind and an accommodating ear’ – sound advice, although once you get used to the pared back vibe you’ll likely just appreciate the beauty of each song.
