History
In 2003, Ben, Tommy, and Jesse met while attending The George Washington University.[1] Shortly after, they formed a band called "The Sunday Mail".[2] After two years, the band decided to take a hiatus.
During that time they ended up writing a lot of new material and wanted a new identity to coincide. They came up with the name "Jukebox the Ghost", after combining lyrics from a Captain Beefheart song and a line from the book Pnin by Vladimir Nabokov.[2]
In 2008, they released their first album "Let Live & Let Ghosts".
Jukebox the Ghost recorded a cover of Ace of Base's "Beautiful Life" for Engine Room Recordings' compilation album Guilt by Association Vol. 2, which was released in November 2008.[3]
Following their tour with Ben Folds in early April 2009, they began their headlining tour in the UK with Nightmare of You. They began their headlining tour with Jenny Owen Youngs back in the United States on April 30 in Chicago, IL. This tour lasted into June, at which point they temporarily stopped touring to concentrate on their next album, "Everything Under the Sun." The band began recording for the new album on September 29, 2009 at Tarquin Studios in Bridgeport, Connecticut.
In February 2010, Jukebox the Ghost toured across Europe with Adam Green of The Moldy Peaches. This was followed by a separate tour in the United States with bands Tally Hall and Skybox. They began touring once again in late May 2010 with the band Free Energy, and played at Lollapalooza in Chicago.
September 1, 2010 marked a major milestone for the band, as they appeared on The Late Show With David Letterman.
Jukebox the Ghost opened up for Barenaked Ladies on their Fall US tour from OctoberNovember 2010 and were a featured band on the Barenaked Ladies-hosted cruise, Ships & Dip 4, in February 2011.
The band will be opening for Jack's Mannequin on their Winter Tour starting January 19th, 2012.
