“I’m so in love with you, and dying to come home.”

On their debut release “Crossroads & Ghosts” Pacific Northwest power trio The Peregrine Dives deliver a sharply stylish mix of New-wave and post-punk revival that echoes goth-tinged turn of
the millennium arena rock while being very much of the moment. Snarled white-knuckle vocals stride vampishly over washed out wall to wall sonics, yet the music breathes and pulses hypnotically.

The Peregrine Dives is a recording and performance project led by guitar player / vocalist John Lankford, a Gen-Xer for whom pop music and the stories around it mean just as much as anyone who ever “made it” in the business.

Lankford cut his teeth playing in noisy alt-rock bands in Arkansas, Minneapolis, and finally Seattle. He paused the music hustle to focus on a career, get a Master’s degree, and even won the game show “The Weakest Link.”

Songs in hand, the project decamped to Peel Studios in Seattle’s Ballard to track and mix the record. The collective walked out with a record that feels custom fit to soundtrack your daily reality. “I hope this record echoes in the background as our listeners discover for themselves that Life WILL reward action” says Lankford. “There are friends to make, chances to take, and your greatest days are ahead!”
