City are a German music band formed in East Berlin in 1972 by Fritz Puppel (Guitar), Klaus Selmke (Drums), Ingo Doering (Bass Guitar), Klaus Witte (Keyboards), Frank Pfeiffer (Vocals) and Andreas Pieper (Flute) as the City Band Berlin. Later they changed their name to City Rock Band and eventually to simply City.

City toured extensively in East Germany, and from 1978 on released albums regularly which achieved success on both sides of the then intra-German border, with a mixture of folk rock and more conventional rock. Their greatest commercial success came with the song "Am Fenster" (At the Window) which has sold 10 million copies worldwide; it was an enormous success in countries such as Greece. In contrast, their first album City has sold half a million copies.
