There's a place on the fringe of mainstream country where tradition meets
innovation, where a nod to the past is as important as a glance toward the
future. It's here that artists like Dwight Yoakam, Marty Stuart and the
Derailers
create their own legacies in the shadows of the giants, and it's here that
Louisiana's country rockers, Christian Serpas & Ghost Town, choose to make
their
mark with their debut full length cd "Giddy Up."

Rising from the honky tonk haze of New Orleans, Ghost Town blasted into
country music's consciousness in 1999, tipping their hats to Johnny Cash,
Hank
Williams, and Buck Owens, while creating their own distinctive brand of
boot-stomping, hip-swaying country.

Ghost Town won the New Orleans JIMMY DEAN TRUE VALUE COUNTRY SHOWDOWN only
four months after their first show, and quickly built a reputation
throughout
the region as a must-see live act. Since then, Ghost Town has turned in
sparkling opening sets before heavyweights including Merle Haggard, Dwight
Yoakam,
Montgomery Gentry, Randy Travis, Brad Paisley, Terri Clark, Joe Nichols,
Asleep
at the Wheel, Tammy Cochran, Steve Holy, SheDaisy, David Allan Coe, Blake
Shelton, Pat Green, Pinmonkey, Cowboy Mouth, Hank Williams III, Jerry Jeff
Walker
and Kenny Chesney, and increased their fanbase with each performance.

In the summer of 2000, the four piece band, Serpas on vocals and acoustic
guitar, Jeff Oteri (drums), George Neyrey (guitar) and Joe Lincoln (bass)
released a five song CD titled "Electric Hoedown", which completely sold
out. The
disc earned them a surprising amount of airplay, plenty of rave reviews, and
favorable comparisons to Dwight Yoakam, Buck Owens, Johnny Cash and Elvis
Presley.
The CD was voted "ALBUM OF THE YEAR" by readers of Tambalaya magazine, who
also voted Serpas "MALE VOCALIST OF THE YEAR".

In 2002 Ghost Town offered "Giddy Up", eleven songs showcasing their unique
brand of high energy, radio-ready country, a disc crackling with the
enthusiasm
and passion of a band out to grab some attention and turn some heads.

From the opening notes you'll know that Ghost Town is something different,
and with irresistible singalongs like "There Ain't No Good in Goodbye" and
"That's It, I Quit, I'm Gone", rockers like "There She Goes", "She Won't
Even Miss
Me When I'm Gone", and their blazing rendition of the Buck Owens classic
"Tiger By the Tail", "Giddy Up" is like a breath of fresh, cool country air.
Offbeat Magazine named "Giddy Up" one of the TOP CDS OF 2002 and nominated
it as
Louisiana Country Album of the Year in their Best of the Beat awards.

So come meet the new neighbors of Dwight, Marty and the Derailers as they
add
their fresh twist to a respected tradition.

"There's a new sheriff in town," wrote music critic Roger Kennedy about
Ghost
Town, "and he brought along his guitar."

Welcome to Ghost Town.
