Tokio Hotel is a German pop band. The quartet has scored four number one singles, two number one albums and claim to have sold over 3 million CDs and DVDs in their homeland. Whilst achieving much chart success in Germany and Austria and some chart success in France,Italy, Israel and in Switzerland they are yet to occupy high chart positions within the English speaking world despite releasing English language versions of their albums.

Originally formed in 2001 under the name Devilish, the band began playing in talent shows and small concerts. After Bill Kaulitz's participation in a children's Star Search in 2003 (which he lost in the quarter-final), he was discovered by music producer Peter Hoffmann. Devilish changed their name to Tokio Hotel ("Tokio", the German language spelling of the city Tokyo, Japan, which they love, and "Hotel", due to their constant touring and sleeping in hotels), and Sony BMG took them under contract. Hoffmann hired David Jost and Pat Benzner into the team of creators and authors, and had them give the children instruction on songwriting and instrument playing. However, shortly before publication of the first album, Sony terminated their contract. In 2005, Universal Music Group took Tokio Hotel under contract and developed a marketing plan.
