Ghostly Hounds is the folk project of Francesca Mirai, singer-songwriter and banjo player based out of S,DÁYES/ Pender Island, BC.
This fall they are touring cross-country to promote the release of their new album, In The Rubble. With a background in classical, jazz and punk, Francesca has become known for their unique vocals. They captivate their audience with a clear, soaring range, powerful projection and just the right amount of grit, coalescing elegantly with traditional and modern banjo instrumentals.
Francesca’s deeply personal song writing, with focus on themes of love and grief, has evoked adoration from listeners across Canada and the United States. Their skill as a songwriter, the intimacy and vulnerability of their songs, and the band’s original and soulful arrangements have earned Ghostly Hounds enduring and enthusiastic support from their fans. Formed in Tiohtià:ke/ Montreal and often on the road, Francesca has toured this project all over the country delivering hundreds of performances from coast-to-coast.
