Because of gray hair: Howard Carpendale gives Florian Silbereisen a surprising gift. The pop singer has been presenting the “Folk Music Festival” on ARD for 20 years.

The visual transformation of the presenter, singer and actor is actually breathtaking: At the beginning of his career as a folk musician in the 1990s, Silbèreisen was still on stage on the accordion with a blonde mullet. Over the years, the blonde became lighter and lighter, and some of the hair became longer and more voluminous.
