Фари́н Урля́б: Неміс музыкантының өмірі мен шығармашылығы

German musician

Jan Vetter (born 27 October 1963), better known as Farin Urlaub (from the German Fahr in Urlaub!, "Go on holiday! "), is a German singer, guitarist and songwriter. He is best known as the guitarist/vocalist for punk rock band Die Ärzte. He has also been a solo artist since 2001, touring with his band, the Farin Urlaub Racing Team. His releases starting in 2006 are credited to the band.

Vetter was born on 27 October 1963 in West Berlin. His parents were low income civil servants, and he has a younger half sister named Julia. His mother often played records by The Beatles, and Vetter was introduced to music at a young age. At the age of 16, Vetter went on a school trip to London, and returned home as a punk with dyed blonde hair. In 1980, he met Dirk Felsenheimer (later known as Bela B) at the club Ballhaus Spandau, one of the few clubs in West Berlin that occasionally played punk rock. Vetter joined Felsenheimer's band Soilent Grün, replacing the previous guitar player whose guitar had been stolen. When it was time to come up with stage names, Vetter decided to refer to his favourite hobby of travelling, contracting the German phrase "Fahr in Urlaub" ("Go on holiday") to Farin Urlaub. After completing his Abitur in 1981, It was followed by auch ("also") in April 2012 and Hell in October 2020, with Urlaub playing a large role in both in addition to his solo work.

Since his childhood, Urlaub has been influenced by The Beatles and Frank Zappa.
