It was founded in 1976 by three brothers - Hans [de], Christoph [de] and Michael Well [de] - and often works with political cabaret artist Gerhard Polt. The name derives from "Beerenmoos" (berry bog), a part of the Haspelmoor in the district of Fürstenfeldbruck that was planned to be transformed in a large airport and a waste dump, and "Blosn", a Bavarian word for "group".
History
The band was founded in 1976 by brothers Hans (born 1 May 1953, Willprechtszell), Christoph (born 3 December 1959, Günzlhofen) and Michael Well (born 10 October 1958, Günzlhofen) in Fürstenfeldbruck. Three years later, their first hit Gott mit dir, du Land der BayWa, was broadcast on the Bayerischer Rundfunk (BR) television channel. The song lampoons the Bavarian national anthem changing the text to criticize massive use of fertilizer in Bavarian farming (which was at that time mostly sold by the BayWa). Following the broadcast, the band as well as the journalists at the BR were attacked for such a "sacrilege". This led to the BR not broadcasting the music of the group for years. In 1979, the group first went on stage together with Gerhard Polt. The group announced in August 2011, they will play a final concert in January 2012 and then disband. They gave their last concert in the city of Fürth, Bavaria on January, 18th, 2012.
Music style:
The band specializes in combining satirical lyrics with folk melodies to create political songs, mostly endorsing causes of groups of the political left, like the German Green party or the Young Socialists. Aside from their main musical style, they also recorded multiple albums with children's songs together with their own children and have acted in theater shows.
Causes:
The band has used their music to protest against multiple projects; amongst them were the planned nuclear reprocessing plant Wackersdorf plant in Wackersdorf, the Bundesautobahn 94, as well as several scandals of the long time governing party of Bavaria, the Christian Social Union of Bavaria.
Critical reactions:
In 1997, the band was denied the Upper Bavarian prize for culture for being too "leftist". In 2001, the Bavarian ministry of education disallowed the song Gott mit dir, du Land der BayWa, which was the band's first hit, from being used in a song book for the eighth grade for "lampooning the Bavarian national anthem" and ordered the whole order of books, 75,000 copies, to be destroyed.
