The German band Fools Garden had a worldwide hit in the mid-1990s with the pop song 'Lemon Tree'. For singer and songwriter Peter Freudenthaler, it opened the door to the international music world and a unique career. In his autobiography, he describes his beginnings with a school band in Pforzheim, the origins of 'Lemon Tree', his sudden success as a pop star, life on tour and encounters with stars and fans all over the world. He still performs on stage with Fools Garden and other musical projects and writes his own songs. My Life as a Lemon Tree is his retrospective of over 33 years of band and music history - and an exciting, warm-hearted and likeable look behind the scenes of the music scene.
