“Ghost Town is a little bit of country, a little bit of rock 'n' roll, a little bit of rockabilly and a whole lot of fun." – Keith Spera, New Orleans Times Picayune Lagniappe
“Ghost Town plays its own country, or is it rock?” - John Wirt, Baton Rouge Advocate
“Classic honky-tonk with a rock ’n’ roll attitude.” – OffBeat magazine
“I’ve said it for years - even if you’re not a country music fan, Christian Serpas & Ghost Town will make you like country music.” – Eric Paulsen, WWL TV
Christian Serpas & Ghost Town are either a country band with a lot of rock in them, or a rock band with a lot of country in them. They play roots music, Americana, rocked out, revved up country. "The first time we opened a show for a big name country act, their road manager said we sounded like Led Zeppelin playing Johnny Cash," says Serpas. "We kinda liked that description."
Hundreds of shows later, Ghost Town continues to reinforce the critical acclaim that's been heaped upon the band. Armed with their own catchy, memorable songs and their rip-roaring interpretations of the classics, Ghost Town is constantly winning new fans with their crowd-pleasing, high energy performances.
They’ve shared stages with everyone who’s anyone in country music (Merle Haggard, Dwight Yoakam, Montgomery Gentry, Kenny Chesney, Pat Green, Cross Canadian Ragweed and over 50 others), hitting clubs and festivals throughout the Gulf South, and selling thousands of their CDs and t-shirts.
Ghost Town was nominated as BEST COUNTRY / FOLK BAND in Gambit magazine’s 2007 Big Easy Awards. In 2006, Christian received the President’s Award as St. Tammany Parish MUSICIAN OF THE YEAR, while Ghost Town’s third CD, “Six Pack”, was named one of the TOP LOUISIANA CDS OF THE YEAR by Offbeat Magazine. Their second CD, "Giddy Up", was named one of the TOP LOUISIANA CDS OF THE YEAR by Offbeat Magazine, and nominated as LOUISIANA COUNTRY ALBUM OF THE YEAR in their Best of the Beat awards. Ghost Town's debut CD, "Electric Hoedown", was voted ALBUM OF THE YEAR by readers of Tambalaya magazine, who also voted Serpas MALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR. Their latest CD, “Hoot and Holler: Live in New Orleans”, has just been released.
