Fiddler's Green were formed in 1990 in Erlanger and were major players in Germany's folk-rock rebirth of the early and mid '90s. They perform a residual of traditional Irish songs and original compositions in a expressive style sometimes redolent of the Pogues and Oysterband only they besides add twists of ska and nods to Johnny Cash and Tom Waits. They helped spawn many corresponding German bands like Tapsi Turtles, Paddy Whack and In Search of a Rose.


Their first tercet albums Fiddler's Green, (1992) Black Sheep (1993) and King Shepherd (1995) were quite consistent Celtic rock collections featuring particular playing by fiddler Tobias Rempe and accordionist Stefan Klug coupled with Peter Pathos' cracking original songs and intricate vocal harmonies. On and On (1997) was their first major label expiration and likewise marked the get-go signs of a more than rock oriented sound for Fiddler's Green. Jim Crichton (Saga) was employed to make Spin Around(1998) which cemented their reasoned transformation despite the comprehension of threesome traditional songs.

Boy George denies false imprisonment charge

Singer Boy George has denied a charge that he falsely imprisoned a male escort.
The former Culture Club frontman, real name George O'Dowd, appeared in a London court yesterday where he was ordered to stand trial later this year.
He will fight the charge that he chained escort Audun Carlsen, 28, to a wall. The offence is alleged to have taken place at the star's Shoreditch home in East London last year.
A previous hearing was told the case centres on an "allegation of false imprisonment".
The 46-year-old, dressed all in black and wearing sunglasses, pleaded not guilty during the brief hearing at Snaresbrook Crown Court, East London.
Boy George was then ordered to stand trial at the same court in November. It is expected to last five days. He left the court without making any comment.
Boy George, who remains on bail under the condition that he cannot contact the alleged victim, left Culture Club in the late 1990s, before briefly trying a solo career. He later became a club DJ.
In 2006 he was ordered to sweep the streets of Manhattan by a US court after charges stemming from an incident when police responded to his call reporting a burglary and found cocaine in his apartment.
