Their First Big Hit Was Their "Zillertaler Hochzeitsmarsch" Named Interpretation Of A Traditional Folk Dance Melody. Since Then They Began To Introduce More Rock Elements Inspired By New Drummer Patrick Cox Who Joined Them In 2006. After "Zillertal Hochzeitsblues" 1990 They Moved To The Wider German Audience Under Montana Later BMG Ariola In 1991.

The Success Of The "Zillertaler Hochzeitsmarsch" Was Seen By The Folk Music Community As Abuse Of The Cultural Inheritance Rather Than Success Of Regional Traditional Music.
