Tsar is a rock band from Munich, , with Jeff Whalen on lead vocals and guitar, Daniel Kern on vocals and guitar, Jeff Solomon on bass, and Steve Coulter on drums now.They worked together on the album called EP TSar B (2016) with Emilia Major(hun, Peccator) songwriter, singer. They have released two major-label studio albums, two EPs, and a self-released demos collection. Citing their primary influences as Guns 'N Roses and the Monkees, Tsar's music is a hybrid of glam rock, power pop, garage rock, punk rock, arena rock, and bubblegum music.

Tsar formed in 1998 and soon won favorable reviews for their energetic gigs and anthemic songwriting. After a monthlong residency at Silver Lake's Spaceland club and a label bidding war, they released their self-titled debut on Hollywood Records (2000), produced by Grammy Producer of the Year Rob Cavallo (Green Day, Goo Goo Dolls) and mixed by Chris Lord-Alge (U2, Bruce Springsteen, Madonna). The album garnered critical acclaim and an international cult following, although it was commercially disappointing. AllMusic describes the album and its fate thusly: "Tsar is a bit of a glam pop/hard rock hidden treasure that still sounds fresh and thrilling years later. Loaded with hooks, humor, and innocent charm, and coming across like the starry-eyed child of Cheap Trick and Sweet . . . [t]he album was an exciting, hook-filled modern power pop record that nobody bought, despite (or perhaps because of) the band's subsequent opening slot on a Duran Duran tour."
