Lankum udgiver en knusende stærk og nytænkende fortolkning af The Specials’ britiske nummer-ét-hit fra 1981, “Ghost Town”.

Lankum fortæller om, hvordan nummeret blev til:

“Ghost Town came to us through some curious circumstances. Oona Doherty, who we were familiar with through her phenomenal dance work on the video for Gilla Band’s ‘Shoulderblades’, contacted us and told us about a new show she was putting together. It was about her great-great-grandfather being sent to Belfast as a child to live with his aunts and work in an abattoir.

She wanted a new piece of music for the show, for a party scene set on Halloween night, and told us she wanted it to start out indistinguishable and woozy, before developing into the very recognisable track by The Specials.”
