LEAVING SPIRIT at Wunderbar Concert No. 96

Leaving Spirit was founded in 2016 by Charlotte Bohne, Marea Löser, Leo Kürschner, Laurin Seitz and Florian Eppel. After winning the newcomer contest "Enter the Stage" of a local rock organization in 2017 Anton Bohne joined the band to complete the guitar trio. The band played several club and festival gigs in 2017 and 2018 and also two shows at Würzburg's biggest festival "Umsonst&Draußen". Later on in 2018 the debut album, which was released in 2019 was recorded. Laurin and Charlotte left town to go to university as well as Marea, she went to spread the spirit in Australia. Paula Frecot (vocals), Felix Möser (drums) and Linus Glaesemer (bass) joined the band shortly after to recomplete the lineup.

The group decided to rerecord the vocals with new vocalist Paula Frecot and released their 13-track debut album "Things Change" on August 2, 2019. They were featured as "act of the month" on Germany's biggest guitar magazine "Gitarre & Bass" (vol. 09/2019). The band took a hiatus from touring until mid 2020. During that time they released a nine episode video series called the "Acoustic Garden Sessions".
