PANTA RHEI

Panta Rhei biography
PANTA RHEI were an jazz rock and soul group from then East Berlin formed in 1971 by Herbert DREILICH, Henning PROTZMANN and Ulrich SWILLMS. The musicians played together for a while while playing jazz oriented music before there came to be a formal group which would eventually incorporate lyrics by poet Jens GERLACH or DREILICH, which were political in different degrees.

By 1975, Veronika FISCHER, singer of the band, started a solo career and other line-up changes occured which led to conceptual differences and eventual dissolvement of the band. In later years compilations of the material in their active years were released to accompany their one self-titled album that was released in 1973.
