Karat celebrates 50 years with a big tour – a musical anniversary!
What’s new in the Cologne music scene? Today we're looking at the top-class band Karat, which is celebrating its 50th anniversary next year. The group's history begins in the 1970s, when talented musicians from Panta Rhei and the Horst Krüger Band joined forces in East Berlin.

Karat can look back on an impressive success story. The band's enduring classics include hits such as "Over Seven Bridges", "King of the World" and "The Blue Planet". According to current sales figures, the band has sold more than twelve million records and is known for their fresh ideas, passion and energy. The members Bernd Römer, Heiko Jung, Martin Becker, Daniel Bätge and Claudius Dreilich are a well-rehearsed team that always inspires with their melodies.

It's a highly anticipated anniversary that will shine an even greater spotlight on the legacy of this legendary band.
