The Stroatklinkers are an acoustic Bluegrass/ folk band from the county of Groningen, in the North East part of the Netherlands that was formed in September 1990. Five musicians, from different musical backgrounds, played together for the first time, as a guest band during a live radio broadcast at a local TV and Radio station. Bob Heidema (the guitar player and contact person for the band) already had a few songs, which were written in the local dialect, Gronings, and they performed these songs in the studio with enormous enthusiasm. Coupled with such a positive response from the listeners, the five decided to continue playing together, but then had to decide on a name.
