Dear Departure Team, I am contacting you on behalf of the Luxembourgish rock band My Own Ghost, as we would like to apply for the opportunity to perform at the Departure Showcase 2026. Here is a link that gives an idea of our music and sound, which we describe as urban dark rock with 80s vibes: https://youtu.be/kjDOZD4H0d8?si=mf8JnwzejMcRDXsc Founded in 2013, My Own Ghost has released three albums: LOVE KILLS (2013), LIFE ON STANDBY (2017), and SHADOW PEOPLE (2022). Over the years, we have supported international artists such as Loudness (JP), Tarja Turunen (FI), Alter Bridge (US), Saving Abel (US), Herman Frank (DE), Delain (NL), OTEP (US), and The Calling (US). In 2022, we signed with the German label Massacre Records and released our third album Shadow People. The following year, we performed at Wacken Open Air 2023, and in 2024 we were part of Rock Fest Barcelona, sharing the lineup with Europe, Deep Purple, KK’s Priest, Pantera, The Warning, and W.A.S.P. We are currently working on our fourth album, planned for release in 2026. Thank you very much for considering our application. We look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Julie
