Dream-pop sensation Ghostly Kisses ignites anticipation for their upcoming album, Darkroom, set to release on May 17th, 2024, with the release of their mesmerizing single, “Keep It Real.” Following the international acclaim garnered from their debut album, Heaven Wait, and fueled by a burgeoning fanbase across the globe, Ghostly Kisses showcases their signature blend of ethereal melodies and poignant lyricism in this latest offering.

Crafted in collaboration with acclaimed producer Oli Bayston (known for his work with Rachel Chinouriri and Olivia Dean, as well as electronic trailblazers Barry Can’t Swim and Yuné Pinku) “Keep It Real” delves into the complexities of relationships, exploring themes of authenticity and emotional vulnerability. Fronted by the enchanting vocals of Margaux Sauvé, the track envelops listeners in a sonic dreamscape, inviting them to delve deep into the intricate layers of human connection.

Margaux Sauvé, lead vocalist of Ghostly Kisses, shares her insight into the inspiration behind “Keep It Real”: “This track stands out as one of the darkest and most impactful pieces on the album. It was inspired by the narratives shared in the Box of Secrets, where individuals wrestled with deciphering the thoughts of others and sought to shed light on complex situations. We wanted to create as many melodic hooks as possible, while keeping the harmonic direction voluntarily changing to put emphasis on the shifting story behind the song.”

With accolades from esteemed publications such as Pitchfork, Metal Mag, and Wonderland, as well as successful tours supporting renowned artists including Ry X, Men I Trust, and Lord Huron, Ghostly Kisses not only lands her sophomore album but also announces her biggest headline tour to date. Following their first set of shows in South East Asia last November, the tour will span the UK, Europe, and North America, further cementing the band’s status as a truly global force.

Margaux Sauvé and Louis-Étienne Santais, the creative forces behind Ghostly Kisses, have meticulously crafted an immersive narrative with their forthcoming album, Darkroom. Through their innovative “Box of Secrets” initiative, they have curated a collection of deeply personal stories and letters from fans around the world, which serve as the foundation for the album’s evocative tracks. “Darkroom” emerges as a beacon of solace and self-discovery, resonating with listeners as they navigate the complexities of contemporary existence.

Collaborations with esteemed artists such as George FitzGerald, Oli Bayston, and Gabriel Desjardins have enriched Ghostly Kisses’ sonic palette, pushing the boundaries of their sound while staying true to their emotive core. As they embark on a new chapter of their musical journey, Ghostly Kisses remains committed to fostering genuine connections with their audience, offering a transformative listening experience that transcends boundaries and defies expectations.
