Christian Steiffen in Erfurt

Christian Steiffen is the stage persona of German musician and actor Hardy Schwetter, whose comic schlager combines sentimental melodies, deadpan innuendo and an extravagantly self-assured character. He is known for songs including “Ich fühl mich Disco,” “Sexualverkehr” and “Eine Flasche Bier,” as well as the album Ferien vom Rock’n’Roll. The Arbeiter der Liebe tour brought his character-led concert show to clubs and theatres, followed by a further run under the Gott of Schlager title. He has also taken the act to major festival audiences at Wacken Open Air.
