Ghost concluded their ‘Re-Imperatour’ tour in October 2023, with the run including two sold-out shows at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, California.
The LA gigs were documented with the 2024 concert film Rite Here Rite Now, which was directed by frontman Tobias Forge and filmmaker Alex Ross Perry.
Speaking to NME about the project this summer, Perry explained: “Ghost as a band is like a planet and the story is like the moon. The moon is not part of the planet, but it orbits the planet.
“The songs and the meanings are thematically connected to what Ghost are pursuing, but they’re not creating a rock opera about these family dynamics of mothers, sons and fathers. I think for fans, it’s like getting two meals instead of one.”
In a four-star review of Rite Here Right Now, NME wrote: “If you’re a casual fan, Rite Here Rite Now makes for a fun, enjoyable experience that should tide you over until their next album or tour. But if you’re a die-hard, this is essential viewing – not just for its exhilarating live moments, but for the next part of the gripping Ghost saga.”
