Ghost Light’s west coast fall tour brought the quintet to Portland, Oregon’s Wonder Ballroom on Saturday, November 16th for two sets of swirling rock and psychedelic jamming.
As you can see from the setlist, Ghost Light played both sets without any breaks between songs, and circled back around to songs started earlier in the sets. The show started with Bob Dylan’s “Tangled Up in Blue,” and included a debut cover of Tame Impala’s “The Less I Know The Better,” a few songs from guitarist Tom Hamilton’s former band American Babies, and a couple of original songs from Ghost Light’s 2019 studio effort, Best Kept Secrets. The show ended with a cover of Suzi Quatro’s “The Wild One.”
