Thank you for joining us for GhostChella 2025
GhostChella 2.0 was SO much fun!! We were awed by Jillian Rae performing spooky favoites, Oak and the Woods as Vulfpeck, Bryn Battani as the Talking Heads and Poison Ivy And The People as Lady Gaga. Alek and I sang a couple of Johnny and June Cash tunes to warm up the stage at Eagles 34 this Halloween. Another huge thanks to our sponsors: Utepils Brewing , Fulton Beer , Minimum Wage Tim's Coffee Co , Leviticus Tattoo , and Eagles 34 . We can't wait to see you next year!
