Life

Markus Löhr got to know fellow musician Klaus Hirschburger during his school days at the age of twelve as a classical musician in an orchestra . Together they founded a band in which Löhr became a guitarist and keyboardist, and Hirschburger became a bassist. At the age of 16, she seriously took up the music together with Hubert Kah , first as "Hubert Kah Trio", then as "Hubert Kah with band". They had met Kah while writing music for plays in Reutlingen . From the beginning, the two wrote and produced for other musicians. Around her high school graduation, Rosemarie became the group's first hit, which Löhr also wrote. The musicians took leave of school for this purpose. Nevertheless, they got their high school diploma. After several successful albums with Hubert Kah, they parted ways in 1989/90, according to Hirschburger, when Hubert Kah embarked on a musical solo path and Löhr had also accepted two production orders. However, the background was also Kah's severe depression. Löhr continued to work as a producer and songwriter for electronic music.

Artists for whom Löhr worked included Hubert Kah, Sandra ( (I'll Never Be) Maria Magdalena , In the Heat of the Night , Little Girl ), Two of Us , Marianne Rosenberg , Stephan Remmler , Münchener Freiheit , Nicki , Juliane Werding , Fool's Garden and Karl Bartos .
