A common way to speak in band descriptions is to say that a band introduces modern elements into traditional tunes. With the Crossfiedlers it's for a change the other way round. They play modern music with traditional contents that reach back until Walther von der Vogelweide. So, traditional tunes form the core. At these the Crossfiedlers dart helter-skelter, let their fiddles run free, and what emerges is a mix of widely varied influences, something that touches the heart of traditional ways and throbs with the pulse of modern times.
