history

Ute and Friedemann met on New Year's Eve in 1975. After initial efforts to keep a band together, they decided to continue as a duo. At the first Christian music congress Jubila 1975 in Böblingen , Ute & Friedemann won first prize in the talent competition with their title You can trust him . Another first place went to her song There was so much at the ERF talent exchange organized by Evangeliums-Rundfunk . In December 1975 the couple married. In 1976 Ute & Friedemann appeared at the closing event of the first Christivalin front of a thousand listeners. After having completed about 200 concerts, the couple began to work on their first album. Produced by Helmut Jost , the debut A Little Village was released shortly before the birth of their third child, so that concert activity had to be reduced initially. With the release of their second album to learn to fly by Gerth Medien in 1983, however, the duo began to perform more often again. The title Is It Really Up To Us Alone took first place in the Gospel Broadcasting Song League for weeks. As the family grew, the first children's songs and family concerts were created together with the children when the Rinks until finally the couple only made children's music. Now that the children are grown up and married, the couple are giving concerts as a duo again. In 2019, after 36 years, Ute and Friedemann will release their own duo album "Wegbegleiter" with 12 songs for the first time, which was released by their own music label Wolkentheater.
