Kati Roloff
Encyclopedia
Kati Roloff was the first female vocalist of Blutengel
together with Nina Bendigkeit
(whose left the band in 2000+- and was replaced by Gini
).
She is the singer on Child of Glass's
"Weg Zu Mir" as well as "Footworship" (with Nina Bendigkeit
) and in Seelenschmerz
she sang "Soul of Ice", "My World" (from the limited box edition) and "I'm Dying Alone" (with Gini Martin
and Chris Pohl).
She also sang "Fairyland (Female Version)" available only on the Machineries of Joy vol. 2 compilation.
It is unclear why Kati left Blutengel. Allegedly, she told a fan that she was upset with Chris Pohl, and that she did not like his attitude of wanting to be boss and do everything on his own. Also, Chris told another fan that because he and Kati were in a relationship previously, it was difficult to continue to work in the same band together.
Kati never wanted to leave Blutengel, she said it was "like seeing my first baby dying".
