Tokio Hotel are identical twin brothers Bill (vocals) & Tom Kaulitz (guitar), Georg Listing (bass) and Gustav Schäfer (drums).
The four guys have been a band since 2001, when they first started playing together in their hometown of Magdeburg,. In 2005, they were signed by Universal and on August 15, 2005, their first single “Durch Den Monsun” was released. It hit #1 the same month. Since then, Tokio Hotel have sold over five records & DVDs. They are the most successful German band in decades. They have also gone gold and/or platinum, (multiple in some cases), in France, Austria, Switzerland, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Italy Czech Republic, Poland, Belgium and Russia.
Their first album, Schrei, produced four Top 5 singles and the live tour for that album was the most successful debut live tour ever on German stages.
Three singles from their next album, Zimmer 483, went into the top 5 in Germany and into the top of the charts in other European countries. The Zimmer 483 Tour went to 12 European countries.
Tokio Hotel does not just sell amazing records and have record breaking concerts though. They have changed the face of history. In 2007, the French President invited them to sing on Bastille Day and they performed at the foot of the Eiffel Tower in front of a crowd of over 600,000 people. Later that same year, the Israeli Embassy contacted Tokio Hotel, and the band from Germany made history playing to a sold out crowd in Tel Aviv in October.
They smashed another wall by becoming the first German band to be nominated for two International Awardsa at the MTV European Awards, where they won Best Inter-Act. Performing their hit Monsoon that night on stage to a global television audience in the millions, under gallons of water, was rated by many as the best performance of the evening!
Next up? 2008 and the release of Scream, an English album comprised of songs from both the earlier Schrei and Zimmer 483 albums. Tokio Hotel first sang on the North American continent in February of 2008 before returning to Europe for another round of touring.
Bill Kaulitz, the lead singer had a bit of a scare in March 2008 when a cyst on his vocal cords required surgery and made it necessary for the band to cancel 16 concerts. The fans rallied around the band though with a global outpouring of love and support and in May 2008, Tokio Hotel was back on stage, with Bill singing better than ever.
In September 2008, after making a LOUD entrance to their first American awards show on the back of a customized Tokio Hotel Monster truck, the band was thrilled and surprised to win Best New Artist at the American MTV Video Music Awards. If the screaming of joy of the fans could be harnessed and made into fuel, it could have sent that Monster Truck to the moon.
Then, in November, Tokio Hotel picked up another award, “Best Headliner” and the MTV European Music Awards in Liverpool. Within just a few weeks after that, their latest DVD, Caught on Camera, went double platinum in France, gold in Portugal and entered the USA charts at #6.
Fast forward to 2009, because we really could use pages and pages to list all of their achievements so far, but for now? Tokio Hotel is in the studio, recording their third album. The title is not yet released, but it is due to be released worldwide in late 2009. Fans are in a frenzy waiting for it!
Stay tuned with us here at their Official USA Fanclub for the latest news and developments. We are so proud to be their fans and their fanclub and glad you have found them!

I just want tokio hotel to come to Asia in Thailand,Bangkok though they are not that popular there. I am from Asia and I would love them to come to Asia for a break. I would love them to come over and if they did I think I would faint if they shake my hand or said hello to me. I would of scream but it would of been weird and then just act like myself around them I guess.

Hallo!!! I am Laura, am of The Angels. I want to say, to the fans of TOKIO HOTEL, since me, who to beginning of year should visit Argentina, I remain in Buenos Aires, then, looks at a so called program: ” los 10+ pedidos”, in this program they spend music of the current importance, as TOKIO HOTEL, PARAMORE, FALL OUT BOY, JONAS BROTHERS, and many mas. What happens it is that TOKIO HOTEL and JONAS BROTHERS, they were a lot of time in the position I number one, and now they were of the count both bands, and it is really bad, because though they do not like to me JONAS, they sing more or less well, BILL sings brilliantly, but it seems that to the girls of Buenos Aires him the girls of Rio Negro do not like very much TOKIO HOTEL, since, THE UNITED STATES, Mexico, Spain and Germany, because of it…. I want to ask them if they can enter this web pag : ” http://www.mtvla.com” , and they vote, only for TOKIO HOTEL, in the “los 10+ pedidos”, with the song “1000 ocenas”, this way estan fot muchisimo time in the position I number one!!!

Trust me……Been there,done that.
