Hi! Spencer is a German indie rock band from Osnabrück. Sven Bensmann (vocals), Jan Niermann (bass, keyboard, vocals), Janis Petersmann (guitar, vocals), Malte Thiede (guitar, vocals), and Niklas Unnerstall (drums) formed the band in 2012, initially as a school and cover band in Hagen am Teutoburger Wald. The lineup has remained unchanged to this day. In February 2015, their debut album Weiteratmen was released on Merchcowboy Records, followed in 2016 by the acoustic EP In den Wolken. In 2019, the band released their second album, Nicht Raus, Aber Weiter. For the song “So schön allein”, Hi! Spencer collaborated with Nicholas Müller of Jupiter Jones. In December 2022, the band played their sold-out 10th-anniversary concert in front of 1,600 guests at Hyde Park in Osnabrück, recorded on the live album Live im Hyde Park. In March 2024, their third studio album oben was released and reached No. 29 on the German album charts. In August 2026, the fourth album immernie follows, featuring eleven tracks and marking the band’s biggest chart success to date: It debuts at No. 3 on the German album charts. The singles “Unsere Jahre”, “An dem Tag, der niemals kam”, and “Gespenster” are released ahead of the album.
