Guido Plüschke: Master of hip-hop and swing beats on the bodhrán, very experienced teacher, I learned a lot from him. Great banjo player as well and the backbone of humor in every session.

Rolf Wagels: Top bodhrán player, involved in many band projects. One of my first teachers and a great guy as well !

Ceolta: The Hannover boys & girl of pleasure, lots of rhythm, lots of pressure. If you want to have an evening with real good craic, be sure to have it there with them.
Ballynacally: Young dynamic folk group with members from Hamburg, Kiel & Föhr island. See the members play on video on their website.


Cara: Well known in Germany, they are now also regular guests at the Ennis trad festival. Very nice songs and fine arrangements & lots of bodhrán pressure from Rolf Wagels.
Dán: New project with DADGAD-guitar wizard Joergen Lang, he saw me step in my first session back in 1997. Songs and Tunes in great sparkling arrangements.
Whirligig: Braunschweig based fine musicians. I had the honor to play sessions with them at the last German winter weekend of Irish trad.
Jens Kommnick: This man must have slept and worked on a guitar fretboard all his life, otherwise his playing is hard to understand. Also great on uillean pipes and whistles and..and...
Ryan´s Airs: The band of my "bodhran twin" Andreas Schneider, great bodhran player and teacher.
Antúaid: Members appear regularly at the Hamburg session and add to the sound with their beautiful playing.
Pendennis Folk Instruments: Andreas Köpke is a great artist who can do almost any kind of celtic strings in unbelievalble craftsmanship and quality. He built a tricone resonator tenor guitar for me. He´s also a fierce player in the Kiel session.
