The group Tramps & Hawkers first sang Irish folk songs, but in the early 1970s they turned to German folk songs. The group Liederjan emerged from this in 1975.
The group sang almost forgotten songs, later their own songs. The trio used sometimes unusual plucked and stringed instruments and harmony singing.
In 1985 Liederjan was awarded the German Cabaret Prize and in 1991 the Audience Award Garchinger Kleinkunstmaske.
Apart from the occasional participation of various guest musicians in their record productions, Liederjan always formed a trio, which at the time of its foundation consisted of Anselm Noffke, Jörg Ermisch and Jochen Wiegandt. While the first two formed the permanent core for more than 25 years, the "third man" was changed several times over the years. Rainer Prüss, Edzard Wagenaar, Wolfgang Rieck, Jürgen Leo, Klaus Irmscher and, until the end of 2015, Michael Lempelius played with Liederjan.
With the death of Anselm Noffke on 14 December 2003, the group lost one of its two remaining founders three years after its 25th stage anniversary. However, at his request and that of his fellow musicians at the time, Liederjan continued. Anselm Noffke's place in the trio was taken by a woman, Hanne Balzer, for the first time in the group's history, so that the joking name "Germany's oldest boy group" that had arisen before lost its basis.
In this composition, Liederjan, which according to its current self-description has been a "musical specialist for quite some time", celebrated its 40th stage anniversary in Hamburg in October 2015. Since the beginning of 2016, Philip Omlor, who comes from the younger singer-songwriter scene, has been a member of Liederjan.
