Who was/is Boppin' B ? - CDs, Vinyl LPs, DVD and more

Since 1985 Boppin'B with their very own interpretation of rock'n'roll have been making the stages of this planet unsafe. Originating from a school band, the first LP'Bee Bop' was recorded in 1988. Due to the increasing number of gigs they decided to make their hobby their profession in 1990, and since then the band plays about 200 shows every year.

They were the first in Germany (1990) to dress modern pop songs in a rock'n'roll outfit and were pioneers for many bands, who later did the same very successfully. (Dick Brave, Boss Hoss, Baseballs etc.) With this concept they conquered the German charts in 2004 and 2005 with the album 'Bop around the Pop' as well as with two single releases and gained great attention throughout Germany. However, they did not limit themselves to this, but, despite the great success they achieved, always placed great value on their own compositions. Their persistence proved them right and so with the last two albums 'B.A.N.G.' and 'Monkey Business', which mainly consisted of their own songs, they were able to climb the upper ranks of the independent charts, which bands from this genre have only very rarely succeeded so far. This is also the reason why they regularly perform with great success in renowned clubs as well as at popular festivals at home and abroad. Their live performance is legendary and captivates by the partly acrobatic show interludes. It's remarkable that the band's success came exclusively from their own efforts and over the years they have never let the 'handle of action' be taken out of their hands. It is living proof that continuity and creativity are not mutually exclusive, but lead to success in this constellation.
