Biography

Kemmler's career began as a member of a trio named Hubert Kah, consisting of Hubert Kemmler (vocals, keyboards), Markus Löhr (guitars, keyboards) and Klaus Hirschburger (bass). It emerged in 1982 at the time of the New German wave and achieved commercial success with the singles "Rosemarie," "Sternenhimmel" and "Einmal Nur Mit Erika... (Dieser Welt Entfliehn)," and with the albums Meine Höhepunkte and Ich Komme.[1] During this time, Kemmler caused quite a stir by his TV appearances, wearing a nightdress or straitjacket. Before Kemmler's music career, he studied law at the University of Tübingen.[2]

The band began working with producer Michael Cretu in 1984. After a German album Goldene Zeiten (1984), it recorded the English-language albums Tensongs (1986) and Sound of My Heart (1989), which were a minor success internationally. Together with Michael Cretu, Kemmler wrote and produced songs for other artists, including "Dancing into Danger" by Inker & Hamilton, "Liebe Auf Den Ersten Blick" by the band Münchener Freiheit and a number of tracks by Sandra such as "Maria Magdalena", "Heaven Can Wait". Hubert Kemmler also contributed backing vocals to most of Sandra's hit singles between 1985 and 1989.[3]

Kemmler was diagnosed with depression in the late 1980s and withdrew from music completely. After his recovery, he re-emerged with the self-titled Hubert Kah and the singles "C'est La Vie" and "Sailing." The production with classic elements was not as commercially successful as hoped for by Kemmler. In 1998, a new single "Love Chain" and a Best Of CD were released. Kemmler then became ill again and had to undergo medical treatment.[4]

In 2005, Kemmler began his second comeback with the album Seelentaucher ("Soul Diver"). The first single was called "No Rain". The album featured a mixture of English and German language tracks.[5]

In the spring of 2007, Kemmler went as Ice King Kini in the musical Princess Lillifee, on tour in Germany. On 26 May 2007, he was one of four guests of honor at the acoustic concert of the band ASP on the Wave-Gotik-Treffen 2007 in Leipzig.

Kemmler recorded new songs with Sandra for her new album Stay in Touch, which was released in late 2012.

2021 disappearance and reappearance

In March 2021, several German media outlets reported that Kemmler and his wife had not been seen in months.[6][7] However, Kemmler was reported as being seen at the Stuttgart hotel celebrating his 60th birthday in March 2021.[8]
