Myrath were forced to cut their European tour with Eleine short due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
Read statements below:
Myrath:
“We have to announce tonight in Leipzig will be our last show for that tour, venues have been shutting down behind us for almost every shows, we’re one of the last bands on tour in Europe right now.
We’re already planning to come back ASAP and we wanna deeply thank everyone of you who came to support us !
Be safe everyone and see you really soon”
“Here is the merch that should have been exclusively sold on tour.
It wasn’t meant to be put online but things don’t always turn out the way we want obviously.
As you can all imagine, the music industry (like every other field) is going to suffer a lot from what’s happening to all of us, and it will take months for technicians, booking agencies, promoters, venues, drivers, musicians, etc…to recover.
We saw bands who performed in empty venues, for their last shows, and stream them so fans can still have a little bit of what could have been a great night.
We salute them, that’s awesome, we wish we had the opportunity to do so, but we were on stage when we heard that show would be our last.
We then decided to ask venues if it would be ok to perform twice every night so maybe 200 people could see us perform, for few more shows, or even for one last show, to let the magic do its work one last time, a little while longer, but it was too late. We salute those who managed to do it.
Now, we also saw bands using crowdfunding to get out of this mess, we can’t judge that, we know the financial loss, but that’s not something we will do, that doesn’t seem right. All we have is our merch made for you, and it will remain magical no matter what.
We’re thankful we were lucky enough to do half of our tour when some bands we know couldn’t even start, we’re blessed none of us personally knows someone who’s suffering from that virus right now, our thoughts to those who didn’t have that chance, our thoughts to those working 24/7 fighting the disease so we can all be safe as soon as possible.
Stay home, stay safe, we’ll see you very soon. Until then, believe and carry on, always

Eleine:
“Since COVID-19 is almost making bigger headlines than The Beatles in the 60’s – no one has missed that bands, large and small, are being forced to either postpone or cancel tour dates.
We were ourselves in the middle of a big European tour with MYRATH when we found ourselves in the midst of the corona virus outbreak. We had no other option but to cancel the rest of our tour.
This has left us heartbroken since we know how many of you wanted to see us live once again or to see us live for the very first time. We’ve invested large amounts of money in this tour, that now puts us in a difficult financial situation due to cancellation.
We also wanted to meet you! We prepared with free Meet & Greets being held at EVERY venue after the shows, at the ready with signing pens and a lot of merch.
Since so many of you didn’t get the chance to see us, meet us and get stuff signed – We’ve put up now, for a limited time only, SIGNED “All Shall Burn” EP Vinyls and CDs for you to purchase alongside all our other merchandise such as t-shirts, prints, patches etc.
This is the least we can do in these heavy times for both artists and fans. This we do for you, our lovely fans, and it would also help us out immensely since we cashed out a lot of money for merchandise being available to any and all fans on this tour.
