Oliver Hartmann, well known as internationally respected singer and guitarist is considered with his band HARTMANN since their debut ’Out in the cold’ in 2005 as one of the best modern German Rock-/ Hard Rock acts. Since then, the band has released 9 successful albums and toured with countless top-acts as Uriah Heep, Toto, The Hooters, Y&T, House Of Lords and many others. The duet ’Simple man’ featuring the outstanding vocalist Eric Martin of Mr. Big has reached more than 1 million streams on Spotify since its release in 2018 as second single of the album ’Hands on the wheel’.
After their latest album ’Get over it’ in 2022, which was enthusiastically accepted by fans worldwide and received once more top reviews by the global rock press, the band is now celebrating their 20th anniversary with the release of the new album ’Twenty times colder’, that again copes with the balancing act between guitar oriented Classic Rock and modernity. The album contains 11 brand new songs incl. the two singles & videos ’Twenty times colder’ and ’This heart’ – two powerful rock tracks that combine classic rock elements with the typical band’s sound, always carried by the unique powerful voice and virtuosic guitar playing of front man Oliver Hartmann.
