Every band needs someone who keeps the wheels turning. For Ghost Town Criers, that’s Pete Haskins.

Calm, grounded and quietly dependable, Pete has the rare ability to make even the biggest stages feel like another rehearsal room. His powerful, groove-driven drumming provides the foundation beneath the band’s expansive sound, allowing everyone else the freedom to drift while never losing direction.

Outside music, Pete is happiest fixing things—whether that’s old motorcycles, broken amplifiers or the band’s increasingly unreliable tour van. He rarely seeks attention and almost never volunteers stories about his life before Ghost Town Criers.

The others joke that Pete has probably lived three completely different lives already.He never confirms or denies it.

“Most problems disappear if you keep moving.”
