BIO
The Ghouliganz
Chicago Psychobilly
What do you get when you cross punk, rockabilly and four stranded castaways with an affinity for blood, gore, rock-n-roll and monster movies??
Why, The Ghouliganz, of course!!!
Started by the fearless crew members of the ship-wrecked Psycho Minnow, with Ghoul Egon aka the OG (upright bass), and Skipper too (drums), later joined by Professor (guitar), while stuck on an uncharted desert isle somewhere in Chicago, the Ghouliganz searched long and far for a suitable lead singer until the fateful arrival of Scary Ann (screams), who became a permanent part of the band as of 2018.
Having recently played the Underground Lounge and Moe's Tavern to name a few, they're ready for their latest diy release titled 'Island', and are planning to set sail for yet another unforgettable three hour tour near you!
​
- "They're welcome to play here anytime. They trashed my bar! Oh, no, wait,
they actually cleaned up a little. Good for them.” ~Moe, Owner - Moe's Tavern
Band Members
Ghoul Egon
Upright Bass
Ghoul Egon is a songwriter, conceptual artist, and upright bassist of the band.
Resurrected by the blood of innocents and prophesied to bring about the end of the world, he's the main creative supernatural force behind the Ghouliganz. Is there anything he can't do?
Skipper
Drums
Armed with deadly set of drums and his dangerously rugged good looks, Skipper is the kind of percussionist that can make.any tall tale heart skip a beat.
Careful ghouls, he's engaged!
Professor
Guitar
The Professor has an amazing talent with the guitar, and also has been known to channel famous, dead guitarists while playing. One legendary seance happened when he was trying to contact Jimi Hendrix for advice, but mistakenly called forth his favorite spirit of all time, Macho Man "Randy Savage"...James has since influenced himself and The Ghouliganz to be the "Cream of the Crop" and to "Snap into a Slim Jim" ...Don't be surprised if you see him onstage yelling "OOOHHH YEAH!!"
Scary Ann
Vocals/Special FX
Always searching beyond the grave for the latest morbidity she can sink her teeth into, ScaryAnn has spent her undead life invoking the art of macabre in her burlesque, aerial & circus sideshows, including angle grinding & fire performances since 2008. Now focusing her grotesque appetite on singing with The Ghouliganz, her voice insatiable to commoners while she serves up a deadly hypnotic feast for all of their fiendish fans. Bottoms Up!
