You know that fairy tale about the fiddles that play endlessly, and they all have to dance until their shoes are red hot, but they never get tired? This German Irish folk band has mastered such tricks, so you’ll have no choice but to dance to your heart’s content. The boys started their band life in 1990. They made their debut two years later with an eponymous album on their own label, Deaf Shepherd Recordings. They signed to a major label for a while, but eventually went back to being independent. They call their own work speed folk, as opposed to folk rock or Irish folk. The band last appeared on Mighty Sounds six years ago, so we’re excited to see how and where the guys have moved since then.
