About Ghosts in the MachineA (mostly) 1980s cover band - As our name suggests, Ghosts In The Machine (GITM) started off with a heavy focus on The Police. While our typical set list still contains lots of Police tunes, we also play U2, The Cure, A-Ha, Squeeze, Talking Heads, Blondie, Toto, Journey, Simple Minds and many other iconic 80s bands. We will veer off the 80s occasionally - backward to Led Zeppelin or Heart, or forward to Red Hot Chili Peppers, Cranberries, The Killers or Dua Lipa. We pride ourselves in combining rock energy with vocal harmony finesse.
If you wish to attend and require special accommodations, please contact Ian Costello, 617-635-1400.
