BIOGRAPHY

Resonator guitars from the early 20th century, nostalgic, synthesizer sounds à la Agar Agar, and poetic, dark lyrics that, in their musical intensity, are reminiscent of Mark Lanegan, Chelsea Wolfe, or Tom Waits. Welcome to an eerie trip through the emotional worlds of The Ghost And The Machine (TGATM).
Twelve impressive “dark indie folk rock” anthems about life and love, failure and rising again, self-deception out of self-protection, and human grief in all its facets.
“Sorrows” is the name of the new album on which Austrian guitarist and singer Andreas Lechner creates his antithesis to the fast-paced streaming madness – he counters the cynicism of the music industry with its three-second attention span with an aesthetic oeuvre.

The band members are: Andi Lechner (vocals, guitar), Martina (alias Martti) Winkler on accordion & syntheziser, Lina Neuner (bass), Hannes Wirth (guitar) and Aurora Hackl Timón (drums), but Lechner often can be experienced at intimate solo shows, too.
