[HIGHLIGHTS] Fritz Puppel is dead: City band founder died at the age of 79

Fritz Puppel founded one of the most important GDR bands, City, in 1972. Singer Toni Krahl: "We are at a loss for words and we are stunned that we are losing our friend and comrade-in-arms for over five decades" After the death of drummer Klaus Selmke in 2020, the remaining four band members decided to disband City at the end of 2022.

City not only had many fans in the GDR, but also in non-socialist countries - for example through the hit "Am Fenster"
