Experience what happens when these innovative and soulful world-class virtuosos put on a musical performance not to be forgotten. When you listen to the music of the Kruger Brothers, you can't help but be amazed by the depth of their artistry. Originally from Europe, now living in North Carolina, they were first introduced to American audiences in 1997 and quickly caught the attention of fans and the music industry alike. Drawing on a rich cultural palette, theirs is a music that celebrates the best of what music can be: exciting, engaging, intelligent and delightful. In an ever expanding body of work, Jens Kruger (banjo, vocals), Uwe Kruger (guitar, lead vocals) and Joel Landsberg (bass, vocals) personify the spirit and innovation that forms the core of American musical tradition. Through their numerous CD releases, radio and television performances, lectures and collaborative efforts, the Kruger Brothers powerful artistic statement inspires and enightens.
