Who is Ghost's current touring bassist?
- Thread starter Bassmingo
- Start date
Yeah, I'm aware of the history. I think it's only 4 former members though. He's had the same studio drummer on the 1st, 3rd, and 4th albums, and all of the bassists up to their current lineup has been known. I'm just curious as to who he is as I caught them live over the weekend. Excellent show.
Oh, I didn't mean to put down the band. I think they get it done.
But the articles I read said 10 former members were involved in the suit.

It was Megan Thomas when I saw them last year. Apparently she plays (played?) in a Zep tribute band called Lez Zeppelin.

seems like it's not known if it's still her, but looks likely.

The current touring bassist looks male. As I mentioned in the OP it was Per Eriksson on the last leg of the Popestar touring cycle, but he's now switched to lead guitar. The masks mentioned in the link above are for the new female keyboardists.
No, the only people mentioned in the suit apart from Tobias himself are Simon Söderberg, Mauro Rubino, Henrik Palm, and Martin Hjertstedt
I know this is a few years old now lol, but apparently the bassist is a guy called Cosmo Sylvan. Used to be bassist for an Australian singer called Brody Dalle. Here's a vid of a gig he did with her from 2014, it defo looks like him from the way he's playing. I got to see Ghost twice last year.
I don't know who the bassist is, just wanted to say that when I went to see Maiden a few summers ago, Ghost opened. I had never even heard of them, and I was super impressed. Good tunes, played very well, and the singer was great. He was also funny as hell, his between song banter was like a stand up act.
How does one apply for a bass gig like that? Do you think it's more who you know? I guess Ghost would only want already established players at this point.
I know the newest bass player live and on the album Impera, they are using a jazz bass most of the time now compared to the precision previously. It sounds great on the Impera record.
