The Ghost of Wrights, The High Sea, Cartoon Bar Fight, & Adira Shark @ The Blue Lagoon Friday 5/11/12


The Ghost of Wrights
Folk/Rock/Experimental
Santa Cruz Mountains

In the 1880’s a railroad was completed that traversed the Santa Cruz Mountains. This was accomplished with the construction of a small number of tunnels that connected the small towns and communities that dotted the countryside between the Santa Clara Valley and Santa Cruz. One of these communities was the train depot of Wrights Station.
The railroad was shut down in the 1940’s with the entrances to the tunnels blown up. As a result these small communities dwindled and disappeared becoming ghost towns. Although little remains today but crumbling stone and overgrown foundations, the souls of these towns and tunnels linger on to this day… We are The Ghost of Wrights.
