David Kraai
Live Music on the Skillers’ Station Stage with David Kraai
David Kraai (pronounced cry, meaning crow) is a multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and bandleader who has been traveling and performing his melting pot of country, folk and rock for over two decades. His roots stem from the famed Woodstock area of New York's Hudson Valley, yet his music has taken him all over the United States and abroad, gaining him an ever-growing fan base.
Carrying on the tradition of Cosmic American Music, David's influences include Gram Parsons, Neil Young, Bob Dylan and The Band. These influences along with his unique sense of melody and lyric help create a sound that is truly his own. Kraai has been fortunate enough to release several albums and share stages and bills with some of his heroes: Pete Seeger, Levon Helm, Garth Hudson, Dickey Betts, Leon Russell, Charlie Louvin, Dr. Ralph Stanley and many more.
David performs from 4-6 pm.
