Our Take

Pete Astor's latest offering, "One For The Ghost," is like a cool, refreshing pint of British ale on a hot summer day - smooth, satisfying, and leaves you wanting more.

From the moment you press play, Astor's whimsical lyrics and laid-back melodies transport you to a world where the ghosts of past loves and missed opportunities linger in the air like a bittersweet perfume.

Tracks like "Coney Island" and "Golden Boy" showcase Astor's masterful songwriting skills, with their catchy hooks and introspective lyrics drawing you in like a moth to a flame.

But it's not all melancholy and nostalgia - the album also features some unexpected twists and turns, like the funky bassline on "Water Tower" or the dreamy synth sounds on "My Sublime Vision."

Overall, "One For The Ghost" is a delightful blend of indie pop and folk, with just a dash of Britpop thrown in for good measure. It's the perfect soundtrack for lazy Sunday afternoons or late-night drives through the countryside.

So pour yourself a cup of tea, put on your headphones, and let Pete Astor sweep you away on a musical journey you won't soon forget. Cheers to that, mate!
