Murkels are friendly, shaggy creatures that live in the dunes all over the world. Wherever there is sand and dunes, Murkels are very likely to be living there too. They respect all living things on Earth and live in harmony with nature. Our little Murkel family lives in a dune on the Baltic Sea beach near Rostock. They love to sing fun children’s songs, tell stories, and explore the world. That’s why they formed the children’s song band “Die Murkels.” Have fun discovering, listening, and watching.
The Murkels’ music is particularly notable for its wide range of musical styles and humorous lyrics. The songs promote creativity, language development, perception, and concentration in children ages 3 and up, and inspire them to move, sing along, and explore.
Live, the music is performed by Papa Murkel, Tobias Wolff, and Sascha Sauerborn. The songs are built up and played using various instruments, voices, and a loop machine. This allows Papa Murkel to explore and explain the structures of the music and the world of sounds.
