Madeline Hawthorne’s new song, “Ghost in a Shell,” was inspired by close friends experiencing difficult breakups and was co-written with her husband during a short break in her touring schedule. “The song puts you in a dream-like state,” she says. “It also harkens back to 70s-era pop, rock, and folk recordings. I thoroughly enjoyed producing this track, and I hope you enjoy listening.”
“Ghost in a Shell” follows the 2024 release Tales From Late Nights & Long Drives, produced by the famed Ryan Hadlock (Zach Bryan, The Lumineers, Vance Joy) and recorded at Bear Creek Studios near Seattle, WA. The album received widespread praise from outlets including Whiskey Riff, No Depression, Relix, Americana Highways, MAGNET, and more.
Hawthorne will kick off her winter tour on January 30 in Colorado Springs, bringing her band through the Rockies and the Pacific Northwest. All tour information and up-to-date news can be found at madelinehawthorne.com.
