Brings are a band from near Cologne, Germany which perform most songs in the local dialect of Cologne, Kölsch. 　　Although the name resembles the German language equivalent of the imperative "bring it!", it is only the family name of three of the founders of the band, one of whom is also the band manager and father of two of the currently active members. Founded in 1991, the group specializes to some extent on songs played during the Carnival time in Germany, but also contributed to the long-standing top ten party hits of Germany.
