Heino - Biography
Heino (born 13 December 1938 as Heinz Georg Kramm) is a German singer of popular music (Schlager) and traditional Volksmusik. Having sold a total of over 50 million records, he is one of the most successful German musicians ever.
After a 50-year career, Heino announced on 30 September 2018 his final tour in 2019 and the release of his final album “...und Tschüss, das letzte Album” (...and bye, the final album). The album consists of 36 songs which are mainly his traditional German folk songs which made him famous.
In 1968, he became the father of an illegitimate daughter, Petra. The mother died in 1988 and the daughter in November 2003, both by suicide. Heino met his third wife, Hannelore Auersperg, in 1972 at the Miss Austria contest in Kitzbühel. They were married in April 1979, and she became his manager. The couple lives in Bad Münstereifel. In 2004, Hannelore suffered a heart attack, which was one reason Heino curtailed his career.
Heino has noticeable exophthalmos due to Graves' disease. For this reason, he always wears very dark glasses in public, which have become part of his trademark appearance. In a 2014 German newspaper story Heino was quoted as saying that he feels "naked" without them and that he had put in his will that he was to be buried with them on. Due to his light hair and skin, some initially believed he wore the glasses due to albinism.
