The odd night in jail, being dowsed by the occasional bucket of cold water and other normally successful deterrents miserably failed to stop the brothers doing their thing which was, for many years, playing on the streets of Europe’s cities as the “Rinnstein- raben” (Engl. = “Guttersnipes”). Their success as buskers and the astounding number of cassettes they sold on the street eventually persuaded them to shelve their studies and turn professional. The change of their group name to “The Brothers” coincided with the appearance of their 1st CD-album “Way to Freedom” in 1992.
From then on it was life on the road playing 120 concerts a year in clubs, halls and festivals including Montreux and Freiburg’s International Tent Festival. Their 2nd CD “Winter Has Gone” (1994) got a lot of airplay and SWF, one of Germany’s largest TV and radio stations, produced a video clip of their song “Little Black Princess”. Although extensive radio and TV work with other national German stations such as SAT1, ZDF and ARD helped increase the group’s popularity they still far prefer live gigs playing for real audiences.
