SPINDRIFT – GHOST OF THE WEST, directed by Burke Roberts, is not the band’s first foray into the film world— their sound has always been heavily influenced by Spaghetti Westerns and they’ve soundtracked a handful of films, including 2008’s Tarantino-produced Hell Ride. Since forming in 1992, Spindrift’s various lineups have included members of Psychic TV, The Brian Jonestown Massacre, and The Warlocks, and they’ve toured with Dead Meadow, BRMC, The Dandy Warhols, and The Black Angels. Led by the deep, bellowing baritone of frontman Kirpatrick Thomas, the band’s unique sound has been described as “experimental,” “cinematic,” and like “living the American dream, were it written by acid-popping UFO enthusiasts.
