The Kruger Brothers

The Kruger Brothers will be making its Addison County debut on Friday, May 3, 7:30pm at the historic Vergennes Opera House. This concert will close out the theater’s 2023-2024 season.

The Kruger Brothers are a fixture within the world of acoustic music with their unique ability to infuse classical music into folk music. They are known for their remarkable discipline, creativity, and honesty of their writing, which has since become a hallmark of the trio’s work. In their ever-expanding body of work – Jens Kruger (banjo and vocals), Uwe Kruger (guitar and lead vocals), and Joel Landsberg, (bass and vocals) – The Kruger Brothers personify the spirit of exploration and innovation that forms the core of the American musical tradition. Their original music is crafted around their discerning taste, and the result is unpretentious, cultivated, and delightfully fresh.

Well over a year ago, when the Friends of the Vergennes Opera House (FVOH) Programming Team was mapping out the 2023-2024 season, they received a very generous offer. A local couple, who wish to remain anonymous, approached the FVOH and offered to donate the Kruger Brothers Concert for the 2023-2024 season in order to help raise funds for the non-profit’s All Access Project.

This will be an exceptional evening.
