As the COVID-19 lockdown took hold of the world, we all reached around for anything that could occupy our time and help give our stalled lives a little burst of purpose. Some of us turned to baking, others turned to hoarding toilet paper but the boys behind Ghost Bumps turned to music. Housemates Gabe Strachan, Tim Palstra, and Max Karklins, who also make up three quarters of Purr Usual, saw the increased time together at home as an opportunity to experiment with musical ideas that sat outside of their typical leanings. All Manner Of Manors is the culmination of a band embracing the small moments of chaos that have dogged us all in 2020. In doing so Ghost Bumps have produced a listening experience that peaks with silliness and grounds itself in astute observations about the isolated state of mind. All Manner Of Manors album is out 4th of September 2020.
