About Me


Violin Key was formed in Feb. 1980 by Charles Mesaros (leadguitar) and Peter Kutschki (vocal). Fortunately they found Uwe F. Heyer quite soon – he’s the drummer and ultimative "rhytm-maschine" for Violin Key.At this time, two additional members joined the band: Peter Rekowski (guitar) and Ralf Hemmers (bass). Violin Key played successfully in local clubs around Duisburg, Germany. From the beginning the band played only their own songs. A lot of fans came to their shows and enjoyed their excellent performance live on stage.As times went by, Rekowski and Hemmers left the band. The line-up changed several times until Mike Fengler (bass) became a member in 1988. In spring 1994, the 17 years old Christian Casaccia (also leadguitar) joined the band. Christian is Charles Mesaros’s cousin and was an addicted fan of the band since he was a 5 years old boy. So he was able to play all the old songs which the band had nearly forgotten.In this formation Violin Key entered the BWS-Studios in winter 1995 to record an album that was also called *Violin Key*. After a great time and selling the album very well around the world, Violin Key split in 1997. Just Charles and Uwe remained and decided to continue rocking in that typical style of Violin Key.In 2004 Chris Hering (bass) joined the band and since that time the official name of the band got a hyphen between *Violin* and *Key*.*Violin-Key* is currently writing new songs and their new album can be expected in nearest future . Charles, Uwe and Chris are highly motivated and enthusiastic. Their flame is still burning and so the story of *Violin-Key* will be continued !

Why we're named "Violin-Key"

The meaning of Violin-Key is just a false translation of the German word "Violinenschlüssel" (alternatively called "Notenschlüssel"). That means a *G-Key* In first time our band name was "G-Key Band...
