I work and sweat drips in my eyes

About Me

Kilian Haller and Jens Ertelt have been making music for years without labelling it as a “band”. In spring 2007 they decided to shape this music in electropop-songs and to perform them on stage as THE PETTER LURING STORY.

Mit Jens Ertelt als kongenialem Partner an Keyboard und Bass entstehen so die traurigen, wütenden, verstörenden, aber auch hoffnungsvollen Klangbilder, ohne die vor allem die beiden selbst nicht leben könnten. Wenn man eigentlich alles hat und nur noch den Überfluss zu genießen braucht, dann...
