Tokio Hotel, a German pop and rock band, was formed in 2001 in Magdeburg by singer Bill Kaulitz, guitarist Tom Kaulitz, bassist Georg Listing, and drummer Gustav Schäfer. The Kaulitz twins began performing live at age 10, later meeting Listing and Schäfer in 2001. Initially named “Devilish,” the band renamed themselves Tokio Hotel due to their affinity for Tokyo and their constant touring and hotel stays. Bill Kaulitz’s participation in a children’s Star Search in 2003 led to their discovery by music producer Peter Hoffmann. After a terminated contract with Sony BMG Germany, Universal Music Group signed them in 2005. Their debut single, “Durch den Monsun” (2005), quickly topped charts in Germany and Austria, and their debut album, “Schrei,” sold over half a million copies globally.
The band’s career progressed with the release of their second German-language album, “Zimmer 483” (2007), and their first English-language album, “Scream” (2007). These albums combined sold over 2.5 million copies worldwide. Milestones in their career include winning their first MTV Europe Music Award for Best InterAct in 2007, an MTV Video Music Award for Best New Artist in 2008, and becoming the first German band to win an MTV VMA. They continued to garner awards, including the Headliner award at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2008 and Best Group at the MTV Europe Music Awards 2009. Bill Kaulitz underwent vocal cord surgery in 2008, leading to temporary tour cancellations but not hindering the band’s long-term success. Their third studio album, “Humanoid” (2009), was released in both German and English versions simultaneously worldwide.
Tokio Hotel diversified their musical style over the years, transitioning from pop-rock and alternative rock to electropop and synth-pop by 2014. They released several more albums, including “Kings of Suburbia” (2014), “Dream Machine” (2017), and their most recent, “2001” (2022). The band has maintained an active touring schedule, with notable tours such as the “Feel It All World Tour” (2015) and “Melancholic Paradise Tour” (2019-2020). They have also engaged in various collaborations, including a feature on Far East Movement’s song “If I Die Tomorrow” (2012) and their singles “White Lies” (2021) and “Behind Blue Eyes” (2021) with German EDM duo VIZE. In 2023, Bill and Tom Kaulitz served as duo coaches on the thirteenth season of “The Voice of Germany,” leading their artist to victory. The band continues to release new music and embark on tours, with “The Tour 2025” and new music planned for 2025.
