Lenore Tamara Danz (14 December 1952 – 22 July 1996) was the lead singer and lyricist of the East German rock group Silly.
After two years at university, she broke off her linguistics studies; however, her application to the Hochschule für Musik "Hanns Eisler" was rejected.
Finally, in 1977 she received her diploma from the Friedrichshain School of Music, following three years of study; this was necessary in East Germany to perform as a professional musician.
Danz was the singer of the all-star band Gitarreros [de] in 1986, where she became acquainted with guitarist Uwe Hassbecker of Stern Meissen, who would later become her partner and would join Silly later in the year.
[1] Danz was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1995, during the recording of Silly's final album, Paradies.
