"There may be no better roots-rock songsmith in West Michigan than Kalamazoo's Brian Koenigsknecht. ...real power, real beauty, a la The Jayhawks and David Gray." -The Grand Rapids Press
Brian Koenigsknecht is a singer/songwriter from Kalamazoo, Michigan. Taught by his father at the age of nine and inheriting his musical influences (neil young, simon & garfunkel, bob dylan, and bruce springsteen) Brian began playing guitar and performing in churches and festivals. After moving to Marquette, Michigan and a chance meeting with now long time friend and singer/songwriter Kristi Neaumann, Brian was inspired to begin writing and performing his own material in bars, coffee houses, and folk festivals. After spending the next few years of touring with friends and musicians (Chris Brill, the Vangoes, and A.M. Static) he now is based out of Kalamazoo, Michigan. Today, Brian Koenigsknecht finds inspiration from his daughters Isabelle and Vienna and continues writing and performing his catalogue of songs solo and with his band "Pillar to Post".
