NINA HAGEN BAND
Born in East Berlin, Nina Hagen was gaining a reputation for being a flamboyant rock singer before she emigrated to the West in 1976. With the Nina Hagen Band, she made two albums for CBS Germany Records and then released her first English-language album, NunSexMonkRock in 1982, where she displays the multi-octave range of her voice. Her music blends an eccentric punk-rock vibe with a true theatrical sensibility.
