The Farmhouse Ghost is a band. Singer/Songwriters, Drew Plowman on acoustic guitar and JB Forrester on bass, like to write songs about mamas, trees and whiskey. Drew looks an awful lot like Justin Bieber, it's kind of sad. J.B. is Papabear, and he likes his porridge hot. Cepheus is from another universe, and he plays the drums. He met Drew and JB at Ike's Wednesday night bluegrass jam. Kris has a guitar pedal that plays radio waves. He used to be Drew's boss at a call center in Virginia. They play a variety of covers that should please any listener, fused between well-crafted originals that will make you laugh, dance and cry....well maybe not cry, but check 'em out. You won't be disappointed.
