In 1985, the qualified conductor Ernst Horn and Alexander Veljanov, who studied theatrical sciences, founded the band DEINE LAKAIEN in Munich.

Horn and Veljanov distinguish themselves by the fact that they go always new ways. In 2006, they followed, for example, an invitation of the Neue Nationalgalerie Berlin and inspired more than 1,000 listeners with an acoustic concert.
