Music style

The musical style of Die Streuner is focused in medieval music, and in particular in medieval tavern music. Their repertoire includes medieval drinking songs, old folk tunes and original, medieval- and Renaissance-like compositions. The lyrics of their songs are mostly in German, with some pieces in French and English.
The group was founded in 1994 by Miriam Petzold and Roland Kempen. Shortly after, Martin Seifert and Carsten Hickstein joined, while the arrival of Mathew Rouse gave the band its current quintet formation.
Among other features, they usually perform at both the Mittelalterlich Phantasie Spectaculum and the Kaltenberger Ritterturnier, where alias are used by all the five members.
Their albums have been released by the label Emmuty Records and produced by Roland Kempen. In 2009, an official fan club was created, named Wilden Gesellen.
