"Ghosts" was voted No.68 in Hot Press People's Choice Top 100 Irish albums of all-time.
February 3 2005
Mark Geary continues to promote his very fine Ghosts album with the following Irish shows before heading off to the U.S. to support the Frames.
Billboard Magazine just said the following:
New York-based Irishman Mark Geary, offers an outstanding sophomore release in "Ghosts." His obscurity should end here: with sparse but superlative meditations like "Beautiful," "You're the Only Girl," the pretty lullaby "Mid-nite Sun" and the nearly nine-minute "Hold Tight," Geary's songwriting and delivery recall such top contemporary practitioners as Ron Sexsmith. "Ghosts" also evokes Van Morrison, particularly his early-1970s era. Perhaps most satisfying about the album is that such a project can be released in 2005 at all—apart from occasional drum programming, these are fully organic, natural-sounding recordings; vocoder, synthesizers and other sound manipulators need not apply. "Ghosts" is a collection of superb songs delivered with a quiet intensity that will endear itself to listeners.—CW, Billboard, January 22 2005

Recorded in New York, France and Dublin, Ghosts was made over the course of a bruising and traumatic year of solid touring. With debut album 33 1/3 Grand Street as his calling card Geary took to the road touring constantly in the U.S. and Ireland and squeezing in recording sessions wherever possible - with Justin Quip in New York and the Odlum brothers in France's Black Box studios as well as snatching a couple of quick recording sessions in the Odlum house in Dublin. Geary grabbed friends he had met along the way (including Glen Hansard and Josh Ritter) for vocals and advice before taking it all back to Black Box for a final mix.
"Black Box was kind of like living in a space station, Dave (Odlum) would be mixing a song and Karl (Odlum) and I would be in another room recording a song that had just been written...the excitement was always there you're working and sleeping at such odd hours - working 18 hours and then sleeping for ten, waking at dinner time to have breakfast and then head straight into the studio".
"Ghosts" was written and in some part recorded in the mists of a madness in Up-State New York when I was walking on a broken ankle for three days before I was finally convinced that something was not right. Black and blue and purple though my leg was, it was the smell that finally convinced me. These songs had been in my head and scribbled on the back of beer mats (coasters!!!) bits of paper, motel stationary. From New York to L.A to Dublin and France and then back to New York...little bits of family time...friendships and hugs...At times I wanted to record and play for ever, then I'd crawl away swearing: i'm done!!!"
This album has been just about the greatest fun I’ve ever had - the irony is not lost on me that a lot of what I seem to write about is sad and thoughtful, a little freaked out and elancholy. The truth is I'm only just learning how to be okay with whatever comes...Playing music, recording these songs with Karl and Dave Odlum, having Glen Hansard and Josh Ritter to call on during recording taught me not to be precious about these songs."Fighting for your right to fail" a line from the title track sums up a lot of what I think I'm about.
