During this time he was already known as a highly respected singer on the international music scene since the late 90’s due to four successful records with the power metal band At Vance, his participation in top sellers as Tobias Sammet's Avantasia and many other well known productions in the hard rock and metal scene. Co-produced and mixed by top producer Sascha Paeth at Gate Studios/Germany the debut album 'Out in the cold' was released in spring 2005 and reviewed as 'Album of the month' in a wide range of rock magazines all over the world. It was also elected by melodicrock.com as 'Song of the year' and 'Ballad of the year' with the songs 'What if I' and 'Into the light'. During the following months the band played their first single shows and festivals in Germany and luckily got the chance in summer 2006 to be touring over Europe for the first time as support for rock legend Toto. In the following years HARTMANN have released four more successful albums: “Home” (2007), “Handmade” (2008 - also available on DVD), “3” (2009), “Balance” (2012) and the current best of compilation entitled “The Best Is Yet To Come” (2013).
