Life

As a child, Marion Sprawe received piano and singing lessons. When she was 14 she bought her first piano. After the 10th grade she completed an apprenticeship as a lathe operator with a high school diploma and sang in the studio choir of the Magdeburg workers' ariety. From 1977 to 1980 she performed as a chanson singer; she also attended music school.

Between 1980 and 1985 she was a singer in the band Juckreiz, which she co-founded . Well known is the song FKK from 1983. She wrote the lyrics of the band together with Friedhelm Ruschak. At the hit festival "Goldener Rathausmann" in Dresden , she won the audience award as a soloist in 1983. With Carsten Mohren (then with Wir and Rockhaus ) she released the title Schniegli Normali in 1984 as the duo Casi Mosi . This title remained the only one of this formation.

Burkhard Lasch brought her in October 1985, together with Michael Barakowski from Perl , to the newly formed band Smokings Rockshow . After Lasch left for the Federal Republic of Germany, she left the band in 1986, which from then on was called Michael Barakowski and Friends . With Alexander Ali Kirfe, who was also at Smokings Rockshow, she formed the duo Helle Farben until the fall of the Berlin Wall, at which point they broke up. Between 1993 and 1999 both played together in the gala band Ageless.

Sprawe lives with her partner Alexander Kirfe in Berlin-Friedrichshain . Together with Kirfe, who is now the keyboard player in the Frank Schöbel Band , she composes new titles and adds the lyrics to them.
