Thanks to a break-in at their apartment, Marie Litton and Matt Bellinger are now minus a computer, an acoustic guitar, a new iPod, a digital camera and a bunch of other stuff, including some of the music Marie

shows and tours and records, Ghost Buffalo has, for good reason, become
an integral part of the Denver scene. The truth is now upon us, though.
