Whiskey Tango Ghosts is the third solo album by Tanya Donelly, released in 2004. The album marks a departure from Donelly's previous pop work in favor of a country and folk-influenced sound. Donelly has described the album as influenced by "a horrible war, a horrible administration, (and) a bleak, mean winter."
