Ghost Light featuring Holly Bowling, Tom Hamilton, Raina Mullen, Steve Lyons and Scott Zwang

Collaboration is a surefire way for musicians to get their creative mojo working. Also, it’s just plain fun to make something new and special with your friends and colleagues. With that in mind, five musicians recently coalesced as Ghost Light, an improvisationally charged collective of heavy hitters from the Northeast jam scene. Holly Bowling and Tom Hamilton lead the ensemble. Bowling is known for her piano reworkings of Phish and Grateful Dead tunes, while Hamilton hails from jam-tronica outfit Brothers Past and Americana group American Babies. Raina Mullen (American Babies), Scotty Zwang (Dopapod) and Steve Lyons (Nicos Gun) round out the group. Ghost Light perform on Saturday, November 17, at the Higher Ground Showcase Lounge in South Burlington.
