Welcome to Ghost Palace Family
Toni and Jonathan met in the mid-2000s in 13eins Ansbach, Bavaria. Back then, Jonathan had a band with his brother called A Rose’s Diary. Shortly afterwards, Toni founded the project “letters to you“.
Both Toni and Jonathan were emo kids to the bone with black clothes, dark hair and painted finger nails, deeply rooted in this small but very active “emo“ scene. It was a great time to be alive. The online platform Myspace was the blueprint for everything they found in their music and made them a part of this sub culture at its peak.
Years went by, they moved to other places and saw each other very scarcely but kept in touch. In 2024 Toni visited Jonathan and his family and they listened to the music from the old days. Both felt the memories coming back and the influence the music had on them. The idea of a split EP arose.
Here’s a nostalgic ode to the Myspace era and 20 years of friendship, remastered by and on a not very dark day in Thessaloniki, Greece.
The Split EP “𝖂𝖍𝖊𝖓 𝖊𝖒𝖔 𝖒𝖊𝖆𝖓𝖙 𝖋𝖗𝖎𝖊𝖓𝖉𝖘𝖍𝖎𝖕 𝖔𝖓 𝕸𝖞𝖘𝖕𝖆𝖈𝖊 𝖊𝖗𝖆“ will be released on 5th December via Ghost Palace Family.
