AOR Heaven signs KLAUS LULEY (ex-CRAAFT)




Klaus Luleys career consists of numerous highlights. Way back in the early 80’s of the last century he was the frontman of German based  RCA recording artists TOKYO  and put out three superb Melodic Rock albums. After the demise of the band he formed the band CRAAFT together with Reinhold Besser and Franz Keil. Switching to CBS Records they had a huge impact in touring with bands such as Queen, Marillion, Gary Moore, Level 42, Bon Jovi, Rod Stewart, Meat Loaf. Albums like their mighty debut ‘Craaft’ or ´Second honeymoon´ are still sought after in every rock collection.

Furthermore the experienced singer/songwriter has penned for many artists amongst Meat Loaf and been in the studio singing sessions with Donna Summer, Jennifer Rush or Giorgio Moroder. After meeting Producer Michael Voss (Mad Max, Michael Schenker) two years ago, they have been planning to record a full new album with Luley’s songs to showcase his abilities.
The new label home was provided by Georg Siegl of AOR Heaven who always has been a fan of Luley and gave the whole project the kick off.

Vocals, Guitars & Keyboards: Klaus Luley
