Dorothea Tachler got her classical background at the prestigious University of Music and Performing Arts Munich. During that time, she began touring the world with German, Japanese, and American bands, as a singer or musician on instruments like violin, keys, bass, and guitar, across various genres like indie, Avantgarde and surf.
Music brought her to New York, where she started composing music for films, but also her own bands including My Favourite Things and Hunki Dori. Dorothea also played in various other bands, collaborating with talents from the New York music scene and composing from commercials to emerging filmmakers and animation artists.
My Favourite Things, initially Dorothea's solo project in Brooklyn, blossomed into a dynamic band with a discography comprising three albums, four singles, and numerous music videos. Hunki Dori released 2 albums, the latest ("Reverie") digitally and on cassette tape by experimental music label Ingrown Records (USA).
For her endeavors to create new music for My Favourite Things and Hunki Dori, she received 2 grants in Germany from GVL (2021) and Musikfonds (2022). More music of hers will be released soon!
