Ghosts ( London,UK)

Ghosts are an indie/pop band from London and were 9th on the BBC's Sound Of 2007 poll. Before signing with Atlantic Records in November 2006 they were previously known as Polanski. Their sound can be compared to the likes of Keane, Thirteen Senses, The Bluetones and even Radiohead.
The band formed after meeting at school in Guildford.
Their first single "Stay the Night" began gaining national radio airplay in January 2007 on the Dermot O'Leary show on BBC Radio 2, and then on 9 February 2007, Ghosts made their first television appearance on The Friday Night Project.
On 22 February 2007, the members of Ghosts, three of their roadies and Claire Fowler were arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage after a hotel in York found their tour manager's room flooded from a broken toilet. They were all subsequently released without charge.
On 23 June 2007, they were selected to play as the 4th act on the main stage of London's Hyde Park Calling Festival, to be followed by The Feeling, Crowded House and Peter Gabriel.
On 21 July 2007, Ghosts were the chosen support act for Keane's last show in Britain for the Under The Iron Sea tour, at the O2 Arena in London.
In April 2008 it was announced that Ghosts would be releasing a new album and after writing new material they were starting to record some of it. The album is expected in early 2009.
