Ellen Warkentine’s ongoing Nonsense Mouth project has treated us with visual and audible splendor, with the four tracks so far offering videos with striking visuals and resonating themes. The music itself is rich and expansive, often incorporating orchestral elements into the melodic and stylistically creative fold. “Ghost” is more of this brilliance, a brass-led enigma where Warkentine’s creeping vocals join alongside the brass, suave guitar lines, and grooving bass. Ellen Warkentine has released some of the most successfully striking videos and tracks this year so far.
