Lord huron ghost on the shore live5/22/2023 The acoustic ballad “The Ghost On The Shore” is deeply rooted as a sailor’s lament heard around a starry night campfire. Songs like “Time To Run”, “I Will Be Back One Day”, “The Man Who Lives Forever”, “She Lit A Fire” and the title track are catchy tunes that will have you transcend into their weaving melodic journey. The band kicks off the record’s ten tracks with “End Of The Earth” in which the author follows his path alone as the chorus exclaims “To the ends of the earth would you follow me? There’s a world that was meant for our eyes to see To the ends of the earth would you follow me? If you won’t I must say my goodbyes to thee” that will hook you early on. After extensive festival bus trips and building a faithful audience, the band was signed at the beginning of 2012. ![]() Another Michigan lad, Miguel Briseño (bass) was added to round out the line-up. Although Schneider played all the instruments on the initial two Ep’s titled Into The Sun and Mighty, he enlisted fellow high school classmate Mark Barry (percussion) and childhood friend Tom Renaud (guitar) to move to Los Angeles and form the live touring band. Three songs were recorded that became the roots of Lord Huron which was formed into a band just months later in August. ![]() In May of 2010, Schneider returned to the great lake for inspiration on music and artwork he had developed with no clear picture what quite to do with. Music continued to be an ever-present pastime along with his visual arts work and both were channeled by his passion for outdoor explorations, landscape, and water. After studying art in college, Schneider spent time in France and New York before settling in Los Angeles around 2005. He later found a place in the Okemos high school orchestra playing upright bass, fiddle, and other acoustic and electric instruments. Ben Schneider grew up in Michigan and first learned to play guitar around the beach campfires of Lake Huron.
