New York disco-pop revivalists Holy Ghost! made a stop at Showbox SoDo Tuesday, April 12, the very day their self-titled debut album hit stores.

The new album “Holy Ghost!” includes 10 infectious, driving songs, featuring guest performances by Luke Jenner (The Rapture), Penguin Prison and (no kidding) Michael McDonald. Here’s a link to the band’s Web site.
