Whiskey Tango Ghosts

From the founding member of three of the most successful bands of the post-punk era (Throwing Muses, The Breeders, Belly), comes the follow-up to 2002's solo outing "Beautysleep." Whiskey Tango Ghost is a record that's more stripped-down, acoustic, natural sounding, and intimate than any of Donelly's previous efforts. The spare arrangements show Tanya's voice off to wonderful effect, while the songs are united by a candid and quietly beautiful simplicity. Each track is self-contained, gently off-kilter and beautifully sung. This is Tanya Donelly as you've never heard her; stepping away from the shield of dissonant rock guitar to calmly and confidently take center stage.
