Free spirited Magnets & Ghosts are a duo unlike any other. The transient styles of Dean Roland (of Collective Soul) and Ryan Potesta create honest rock anthems matched with fantastic songwriting. The duo from Venice, CA and Atlanta, GA, released their first full length in 2011, and followed it up with their 2014 EP release, Be Born.
Current Single: “Drug Money”
How did you form?
We met in Boston while Ryan was going to Berklee. We worked on a Collective Soul project and bonded over similar taste in music. Initially we got together to write a couple of songs and it turned into many. I think after the fourth or fifth song we decided we may want to title the project.
What has been the highlight of your career?
Initially it was just finishing the first record mass. Now having finished our 2nd..Be Born We’re loving be able to play the songs in a live setting.
Why should people listen to you? What makes your music so different?
Obviously it’s a subjective thing but I take pride in the fact we play our instruments and write honest lyrics that come from our life experiences.
