In the lead-up to February’s national “I Am” tour, Chasing Ghosts and Millie Tizzard proudly present the haunting lullaby from 2016’s “I Am Jimmy Kyle” album, simply yet stirringly titled “Death“.
Produced by Comeback Kid’s Andrew Neufeld, Death is a nostalgic duet and a tip of the hat to the late June Carter and the Johnny Cash. Singer/songwriter Jimmy Kyle reflects on the song as “the story of my youth and paints the story of the best nights that I never planned… the adage of being restless, a type of manic enthusiasm in a mundane small town”.
Chasing Ghosts’ have overseen an unrivalled end to 2016 and start to 2017, riding a wave of exceptional praise for sophomore album “I Am Jimmy Kyle”, applause from Triple J and Triple J Unearthed for singles Jane Doe and Anthem For Bastards, Liars & Cheats, reverence in the halls of local and regional broadcasters and culminating at a stunning #8 on the Australian Killyourstereo.com reader poll, February’s national tour is just another surging step forward on Chasing Ghosts exciting trajectory.

“It connects and rings true to people who perhaps think, what happened to all those dreams? That energy and that attitude to take on the world. I miss that reckless and restless me that felt invincible and said ‘fuck you’ to consequences and to ‘Death’. Its a feeling you need to make sure you never completely lose.” – Jimmy Kyle (Chasing Ghosts)
