Peter Maffays Sohn Yaris: Abseits vom Promi-Status seinen eigenen Weg gehen

Peter Maffay’s son Yaris, aged 20, has decided to step away from working with his famous father. Being the child of a celebrity is not always easy, as the constant comparisons and pressure can become a burden. Yaris, also known as Makkay, aims to establish his own music career independently from his father’s fame. Despite having the opportunity to perform alongside Peter Maffay and experiencing the thrill of being on stage, Yaris is determined to carve his path without relying on his father’s prominence.

Acknowledging that he doesn’t want to leverage his father’s celebrity status for personal gain, Yaris emphasizes his desire for a grounded approach to building his music career. He spent his childhood away from the limelight on the peaceful island of Mallorca and returned to Germany a few years ago to pursue his passion for music. Yaris has worked in a bakery and as a waiter, demonstrating his commitment to financial independence and hard work.

Despite initial disagreements and clashes with Peter Maffay when he worked for his father upon returning to Germany, Yaris now assists as a social media manager in his father’s company. Alongside this role, he is diligently working on his upcoming album, planning to embark on his tour starting in October. The father-son duo has navigated their differences, with Peter Maffay openly sharing his struggles with alcohol in the past. The young musician understands the high expectations set for him and is determined to establish his identity in the music industry.
