City is an iconic German rock band known for their blend of rock, pop, and prog-rock elements, creating a unique sound that has resonated with fans since their inception in the 1970s. The band's roots trace back to East Berlin, where they emerged as one of the few rock acts that thrived under the austere cultural policies of the German Democratic Republic (GDR). City became widely known beyond the Iron Curtain with their classic hit "Am Fenster" ("At the Window"), a song that has endured as a signature tune, captivating listeners with its haunting melodies and profound lyrics.

Over the years, City has maintained a devoted following in Germany and abroad, continuously working to evolve their sound while staying true to the themes of love, societal reflections, and inner struggle that commonly permeate their work. As evidenced by recent releases like "Die letzte Runde" and "Am Fenster Reloaded 4.0 (40 Jahre Evolution Mix)", the band has embraced both their legacy and the passage of time, reimagining their classic material while also forging ahead with new music. Their album and concert titles, such as "CandleLight Spektakel (Live in Sachsen)" and "Live aus Berlin", hint at their commitment to live performances, which remain a vital aspect of their enduring appeal, ensuring that the spirit of City continues to captivate new generations of listeners.
