Ghoul for a Goblin - You Know You'll Still Find Me There - New Cassette 2024 Oakley Avenue Vinyl - Chicago Emo / Pop Punk

Ghoul for a Goblin first brought its musical haunts to the scene in 2011 as Sean Ryan’s solo acoustic project. In the decade since, the band has expanded into an emotional force, adding guitarist and vocalist Dave Sanicki, drummer Joey Wienckowski, and bassist Tyler Olmsted into the mix. 

What began as an amalgamation of pop and punk eventually evolved—both organically and intentionally—to fill the emo space. 

Frontman Sean says the band’s focus has shifted over the years, covering a wide swathe of creative ground: “Songwriting-wise, our earlier stuff focused so much on relationship troubles, but more recently we’ve been dealing with themes of death and regret.”
