   About Kris Lager Band
Kris Lager and Jeremiah Weir's Electric Stomp is a Nebraska born Duo who have dedicated their lives to playing Soulful, original music.

With Weir on drums, and Lager on guitar and vocals, the guys have a chemistry that comes from playing well over 1,000 shows together and the word is getting out that these two are both powerful and unique. With their "Celebrate Life" mantra and working class musicianship, the show is constantly evolving as the lines between Rock, Soul, Blues, Zydeco, and Hill Country Boogie blur into a sound that is truly their own. In a time where 'Blues' has become a buzz-kill word because it seems so many try and emulate what has already been done, Kris ups the ante with an often overlooked aspect of the music...good Songwriting. When Kris sings you can tell that he feels every word and lives every emotion as the songs evoke everything from Joy to Sorrow, Celebration to personal Meditation. And, longtime sideman and Hammond hauler, Weir continues to amaze audiences as he has proven to be a slammin' drummer with an uncanny ability to follow Kris and hold a solid Groove.

Together, these two have traveled the country and honed their craft. Never resting on past success and always working in new material, it's undeniable that Kris Lager and Jeremiah Weir's Electric Stomp is the real deal. Good people, good music, and a Real Good Time.

Check out their latest CD "The Mighty Quinn" featuring rockin' drummer John Fairchild. "Screaming guitars, powerful drums, piping organ delivered by a trio who has played together for years. No click tracks, no overdubs. It's real, it's raw, and it's good." CD Baby





Indigenous front man Mato Nanji had hired these guys to be his nationally touring band and together they have traveled from N.Y. to L.A., Yellowknife to New Orleans and many places in-between. Look for the new Indigenous album "Broken Lands" with KLB.

Don't miss a chance to see this unique, energetic band from the Heartland. And make sure you check out their music available on iTunes and at www.krislagerband.com





"Kris Lager Band is so unassuming that it might take you a few songs to realize they're crack musicians with substantial songwriting abilities, rock-solid musicianship, and the kind of exacting sensibility that makes every song distinctive (and distinctly theirs). Those who reside on either coast might be used to thinking of the Midwest as flyover country, but "Transient" makes crystal-clear that the interior U.S. is a musical crossroads. The band inhabits the borderland of genre boundaries so comfortably, it's clear that, to them, this is home. That kind of boundary crossing gives "Transient" a cosmopolitan flair that complements its friendly, down-home sensibility. Without sounding preachy or condescending Lager and company can serve up gourmet home cooking while respecting the intelligence of their listeners." --- Genevieve Williams (Blues Revue)

"Mato Nanji, founder and leader of the Native American blues-rock band Indigenous fronts a tight, organ-powered quintet. The band's lineup was overhauled recently. Slide guitarist Kris Lager and keyboardist Jeremiah Weir now play a prominent role, so much so that the set Monday night often evoked the Allman Brothers. Frequently trading solos -- contrasting brawny, reverberating Strat tones with piercing, bottleneck flourishes -- Nanji and Lager orchestrated a series of Allmanesque crescendos with help from Weir, bassist A.C Wright and drummer John Fairchild. "
Mike Joyce (Washington Post)

"Try sampling the "Celebrate Life' sounds of the Kris Lager Band. This Lincoln band romps through a lot of different blues and rock sounds to create original music that is undeniably uplifting. You can’t leave a Kris Lager show in a bad mood."
BJ Huchtemann (the Reader)

If you loaded up the Black Keys, Deep Purple, and Ben Harper into a van, shoved them into a car smasher, you'd get the Kris Lager band.
-Producer Charlie Johnson at 1:17pm February 25, 2009
