The album “27” by BRUNHILDE is (almost) not about the superstars who died much too early, but describes the fates of people outside the music business in eleven songs, who all have one thing in common: They also died at 27! Caro Loy, the charismatic singer of BRUNHILDE, explains the background of the concept album.
“At first we really thought of dedicating the album and the songs to all our rock heroes who died at age 27. But the theme of ‘Club 27’ quickly became too one-dimensional for us, because the stories of drug abuse, alcohol addiction and suicide are all pretty right away. Also, we didn’t want to glorify the so-called ‘rock ‘n’ roll lifestyle’ here.” Instead, Caro researched extensively on the internet and found more and more unusual stories, mostly from completely normal people.
