Blue Christmas

Blue Christmas – the first track from Cherry Ghost in 5 years. Cutting into the rotten core of politics whilst marking the festive season. Simon Aldred transformed a would-be, fireside Christmas classic into a caustic commentary on the poverty-enabling, truth-distorting and minority-weakening election campaign and its shock outcome – writing it 24 hours before the result was announced.

HVN543 – Heavenly 30 Weekender
Heavenly Recordings are celebrating their 30 year anniversary next April with a weekend of live music at the Trades Club in Hebden Bridge. As in 2015, Cherry Ghost will be there next year with a gig on the evening of Saturday April 18th 2020.
This will be Cherry Ghost’s first gig in five years. “I don’t really play live gigs any more,” says Simon Aldred. “But this is the perfect occasion to make an exception because it’s such a wonderful venue and for a label I have nothing but love for.”
Tickets for the gig are now sold out.

Cherry Ghost made a welcome live return at the BBC studios in Salford this evening. Simon along with Christian Madden performed three tracks live on Marc Riley’s 6 music show.
