Michael Holm

Michael Holm is a German music legend whose career spans over six decades, blending schlager, pop, and rock with a knack for catchy melodies. Born in 1943, he first gained fame in the late 1960s as part of the duo *Hansen & Holm*, scoring a massive hit with "Mendocino." By the 1970s, he went solo and became a household name with tracks like "Barfuß im Regen" and his electronic experiments under the alias *Lake* (not to be confused with the later band of the same name). Holm’s versatility shines through his work—he’s written for other artists, dabbled in film soundtracks, and even voiced roles in German dubs of Disney classics like *The Lion King*.

In recent years, he’s embraced nostalgia while staying fresh, releasing retro compilations like *Die Telefunken Singles 1961–1965* and modernized remixes (*Der Michael Holm Hit-Mix*). Albums like *Als die alten Zeiten jung war’n* and *HOLM 80* celebrate his enduring legacy, blending vintage charm with contemporary flair. Whether revisiting his hits or dropping new material, Michael Holm remains a cheerful fixture in German pop culture, proving good music never goes out of style.
