DOTA - “Ein Song von jedem Album”

The Berlin singer-songwriter Dota Kehr, drummer Janis Görlich and guitarist Jan Rohrbach have been making music together since 2003, first under the pseudonym “Die Kleingeldprinzessin”, then since 2013 under the name DOTA.
The band tours nationally and internationally and releases 16 albums. They collaborate with Brazilian musicians such as Chico Cesár and Danilo Guilherme and receive awards such as the German Record Critics' Prize and the Fred Jay Prize.
With “We call you, Galaktika” DOTA will enter the top ten of the German album charts for the first time in 2021. A year earlier, the album "Kaléko" was released with settings of the texts of the poet of the same name, which was initially intended as a one-off project, but then became so successful that they released a second Kaléko album in 2023, "In the Farthest of the Far", which also made it into the top ten and was awarded the German Record Critics' Prize. An illustrious group of duet partners gathers on both works: Black Sea Dahu, Alin Coen, Sarah Lesch, Nicola Rost (Laing), Anna Mateur, Dirk von Lowtzow (Tocotronic), Clueso, Gisbert zu Knyphausen, Funny van Dannen, Rainald Grebe, Hannes Wader, Konstantin Wecker and others
Politically committed, Dota is not content with having the “right” opinion and delivering slogans for those who are already like-minded. Instead, she confronts herself with her own helplessness. No answers, but songs in which you can surrender to utopia, at least for the duration of a chorus. In doing so, she always exposes her own point of view, makes fun of it analytically and doesn't take herself too seriously.
