Dota (Dorothea "Dota" Kehr German pronunciation: [doʁoˈteːa ˈkeːɐ̯], born 1979) is a singer-songwriter from Berlin and the leader of the musical group Dota und die Stadtpiraten ("Urban Pirates"). With her topical, critical texts delivered in often rapid flowing rhythm and sound influenced by Bossa Nova and Jazz, the singer has amassed a following in the German-speaking music world. Her records have been self-published on her own Kleingeldprinzessin Records label and distributed by Broken Silence, and she also declined to perform at party conventions during the 2005 Bundestag elections. In October 2006, she performed five concerts in Russia upon the invitation of the Goethe Institute and in the spring of 2009 she toured New Zealand.
