Liederjan

Liederjan in Concert (presumably in 1978 at Schwenningen)

Liederjan is a north-German folk group. It originated as Tramps & Hawkers, which played Irish traditional music in the early 1970s. They gradually started playing German folk music, and in 1975 formed the group Liederjan.[1]

The principal members of the band were Anselm Noffke (died 2003), Jörg Ermisch und Jochen Wiegandt. Others who played with Liederjan were Rainer Prüss, Edzard Wagenaar, Wolfgang Rieck, Jürgen Leo, Klaus Irmscher, and currently Hanne Balzer and Michael Lempelius.[2]
