The German swing band that vows to keep you entertained through the pandemic Pirco Pirco
By Erik Kirschbaum
Back in March when all the music clubs closed in Berlin, big band leader Andrej Hermlin made a promise: to keep on performing as long as the coronavirus pandemic restricts our lives.
His band, the Swingin’ Hermlins, started a non-stop series of nightly concerts streamed live via Facebook. KCRW Berlin’s Erik Kirschbaum met Andrej Hermlin to talk about his love for American music from the 1930s and why he made this crazy promise.
You can catch the Swingin’ Hermlins’ nightly concerts at 7 p.m on Facebook Live.
Do children in Germany deserve more of a say? Should the voting age here be dropped to 14? These ideas are being discussed in Germany and this week's Studio Berlin, as criticism mounts over the way society treats its younger members.
