Michael Stipe, Steph Werner, and Jordan Zabady form the trio Le Ghast
Le Ghast is a trailblazing trio that seamlessly blends moody atmospheres with infectious grooves, creating a sound that is both hauntingly unique and undeniably captivating. With a signature style that has been dubbed “Prom Rock,” their music evokes the sensation of being lost in a moment—a lone dancer under a disco ball, swept up in dreamy, otherworldly vibes.
Fronted by the powerful and evocative vocals of Steph Werner, the band’s dynamic energy is further elevated by Michael Stipe’s commanding basslines and Jordan Zabady’s innovative live beatboxing and percussion. Based in Harrisburg, PA, Le Ghast is an LGBTQIA+ female fronted trio committed to pushing boundaries and challenging expectations with every performance.
Known for their genre-defying sound and captivating live shows, Le Ghast has earned acclaim for their ability to evoke both nostalgia and bold innovation, crafting a sound that feels both timeless and visionary.
