Kraftwerk man quits band
By CMU Editorial | Published on Tuesday 6 January 2009
Kraftwerk’s Florian Schneider has announced that he is quitting the band.
Schneider was one of the band’s two co-founders, the other being songwriting partner Ralf Hutter, who will continue on with the remaining members.
The group announced the news via their website but gave no indication as to the reasons for Schneider’s decision to leave. It’s thought he’s planning to focus on solo work.
The rest of the band will join Radiohead when they tour the Americas starting in March this year, as planned.
