Fiddler's Green at Pol'and'Rock Festival 2022


A German band that plays Irish folk music - Fiddler's Green are going to play at Pol'and'Rock 2022!


What a ride it’s been—for over 30 years, Fiddler's Green have been one of the biggest and most successful folk-rock bands in Europe, impacting the entire folk-rock scene with a high-energy sound that will carry you away. 2020 will be a year of celebration, marking 30 years of Germany’s biggest Irish Speedfolk band. The short and sweet motto “3 Cheers for 30 Years!” says it all—so join us as we embark on this celebratory journey.



It began many, many years ago—in 1990, when a group of students started making music in the kitchen of a student flat, fiddle, accordion, guitars and the thumping of drums coming together to produce an inimitable sound that would go on to be celebrated up and down the country from that moment on. Fixed dates in the gig calendar take the band not only to Germany’s neighbouring countries but farther afield to Russia, Norway and Japan as well. With the fan base in countries beyond Europe’s borders growing by the day, the six lads’ seldom make it back home to Germany. Since the release of their first album in 1992, the group went on to record 16 studio albums, 4 live albums and 2 DVDs.



The Fiddler‘s Irish Speedfolk style really does speak to audiences all over the world—the energy on stage is intoxicating, sweeping through the fans, who give it straight back to the band. And if you think gigging has become something of a routine after all these years, you couldn’t be more wrong. As frontman Albi likes to say: every gig is and will always be a unique moment in time for us as a band and the fans out there!“



The 28th Pol'and'Rock Festival takes place on August 4-6, 2022 at the premises of the Czaplinek – Broczyno airport, ca. 7 km away from Czaplinek, in the West Pomeranian Voivodeship. Among the already revealed artists of the festival’s line-up this year there are Tagada Jones, Clutch, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, Wolf Alice, and Kwiat Jabłoni. 28th Pol’and’Rock Festival will take a form of a massive peace manifestation with the main message: NO WAR. The event is open and free of charge.
