SHOSTA

SHOSTA is the intersection of darkness and danceability – somewhere between darkwave, bodypop and synthpop. Founded during the first lockdown in 2020 by Peter ‘SHOSTA’ Grimm, the project took shape in isolation, but its sound is pushing its way into clubs and onto stages. With their debut album Hölle der Vögel (Hell of Birds, 2022), SHOSTA established a soundscape that is as emotional as it is driving: pulsating synths, cutting beats, haunting vocals. Since the end of 2022, Moritz Fris (drums) has brought a raw, organic power to the project – the perfect complement to the electronic foundation. Musically, SHOSTA bridges the gap between Depeche Mode, And One and Deutsch-Amerikanische Freundschaft (DAF). The result is a sound that goes straight to the heart and the legs: dark, intense and full of energy.
