Working with Artists

In 2005, there was a situation where some of David Brandes's music projects faced a challenge. This led to the artists he produced being temporarily paused from appearing on the German Top 100 music charts for three months. Despite this, the singer Gracia continued to work with Brandes, while Vanilla Ninja chose a different path.

Eurovision Song Contest

Because David Brandes was managing both Gracia and Vanilla Ninja at the time, he had two songs in the Eurovision Song Contest 2005. Gracia's song, "Run & Hide," represented Germany. Vanilla Ninja's song, "Cool Vibes," represented Switzerland.
