• Fiddlers Green

The year is 2019 AD. Musicland is entirely occupied by casting show idols or faceless plastic pop and suffers from declining music sales. Well, not entirely... One small band of musicians still holds out against the invaders. For almost 30 years, Fiddler's Green have been playing the role of the indomitable Gaulish Village among Germany’s indigenous rock bands. Their form of resistance against mainstream musical practices? Playing rocked-up Irish music as a German band. Where in the beginnings they were at times met with belittling smiles, the sextet nowadays is sitting prettier than ever and can rightfully claim to be one of the country’s most successful bands.

• Kranke Heile Welt
• Trendelburg

An oppressive feeling of the world expands that like a scratched CD persistently jumps in one place and speaks to us in an ever louder voice: So it cannot and will not continue. But even in deafening strength we just do not listen. Silently we hunt for the last booty in the long lost battle between the one up there and me down there.
