🎵 Congratulations to Route97 on the release of their new single, “Ghost of You”!
Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/track/4My5bGUabFwl2eLHCeSgvG

It's finally here.

Ghost of You is officially out NOW on all streaming platforms.

This song came from a place of heartbreak, healing, and finally finding the strength to let go of someone who's been gone long before they actually left. If you've ever loved someone who became a memory while they were still standing beside you, this one's for you.

Every stream, share, playlist add, and comment makes a huge difference for an independent band like us. If the song means something to you, we'd love if you'd help us get it in front of more people.

🎧 Listen now, turn it up, and let us know what you think.
