Ground Control Ep 4 - Adrian Teacher (Apollo Ghosts)
Episode description
Apollo Ghosts formed in 2008, and their live show currently features Amanda Panda on bass, Adrian Teacher on guitar and vocals, and Dustin B on Drums.
Their latest album Pink Tiger, is a 2-part, 22 song epic.
Part 1 (Pink) is an intimate home recording with themes that grapple with loss, illness, death, and memory.
Part 2, (Tiger) is an exuberant indie-garage rock celebration of the persistence of friendship, music and hope. Apollo ghosts draw on a long history of independent and locally focused music making, from Flying Nun to K Records to their own Vancouver scene, to reinvigorate indie guitar rock songwriting with ambition and poise.
I’m speaking with singer and guitarist, Adrian Teacher today on the show about the making of the record, the sense experience of live music shows, and the band’s general excitement for their first-ever show in Smithers.
