Till Kersting is a real circus kid: as a little boy he got a taste of backstage in his uncle's beat band. After that, the 13‐year‐old went on tour with his parents' 'cultural circus', slept in a construction trailer, and learned the craft that would later have a lasting impact on his life. He stood on stage with his guitar, gave his all every night. Today he pursues his own career as a hired gun and tours the world with the rockabilly triumvirate The Baseballs. He regularly appears as a bandleader on German national television and now devotes himself extensively to songwriting (initially in English, now exclusively in German), honing his excellent guitar technique and refining his Fender® tuning. With 'Circuskind', Bear Family Records® releases the oeuvre of a pure rock 'n' roller who has absorbed the US‐American world of soul and rock like no other!
